In a midlatitude cyclone, what happens with the warm conveyor belt?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Warm, moist air of the warm sector is drawn upward and toward the center of the cyclone. The air is drawn over the warm front top higher elevations and can become westerly with the air at altitude. This is the conveyor supplying the moisture for precipitation ahead of the cold front and ahead of the surface position of the warm front.
