Gust front

A side-view meteorological diagram of a gust front shown as a low, shallow wedge-shaped leading edge of dense cool outflow air hugging the ground. The boundary appears as a curved blue-gray arc or wedge with a sharp, crisp advancing front face, slightly more dramatic and defined than a generic outflow boundary. Small arrows near the surface push outward or forward along the ground, emphasizing the spreading motion of the air mass. The leading edge may have a subtle rolling or curling form, giving the impression of a shallow bulldozing air mass advancing beneath warmer air.
