What is another word for occluded front?
Pronunciation: [əklˈuːdɪd fɹˈʌnt] (IPA) 
An occluded front is a weather phenomenon that occurs when a warm front and a cold front converge. This convergence creates a boundary where warm air is lifted, and cold air is forced under it. As the two fronts combine, they form an occlusion, a zone where the air temperature drops, and clouds develop. Other ways to describe an occluded front include a stationary front, a boundary frontal system, or a cyclone boundary. Additionally, meteorologists may refer to it as a merged front or a composite front, depending on the stage of development. Regardless of the terminology used, occluded fronts are crucial in producing significant weather events such as thunderstorms, heavy rain, and snow.
