Summarizing these diagnoses one can say that both Cold Front and Warm Front represent well-developed conceptual models (compare Conceptual Models: Cold Front and Conceptual Models: Warm Front Shield ) with rather classical distributions of the relevant key parameters. The next sub-chapter deals with the frontal situation six hours later (compare Frontal Diagnosis - 19 February 1997/06.00 UTC).
