A warm front moved into the area.
A warm front moved into the area.

The student's observations indicate that a cold air mass replaced a warm air mass.

that is NOT an option pick one of the option

Apologies for the confusion. In that case, the best explanation for the student's observations is that a cold front moved into the area.

ok thanks sorry abt that (┬┬﹏┬┬)
