Measures the weight of the atmosphere, which is called "pressure". A warm front contains water vapor, which is lighter than air, so it's "pressure" value is lower than a cold fronts. This also makes the frontal air rise into the upper atmosphere and the Earth's rotation will give it a counter-clockwise spin. The reverse is true for cold fronts. Located next to BMOW's desk.
