Interesting, Jessica. You can search for the term compressional heating. The usual situation is: As a cold front approaches, it compresses the air ahead of it, giving warm temperatures for a while, in advance of the cold air. Also called adiabatic heating. A science experiment illustrates it: Piece of cotton in a test tube with a sliding piston. Make the piston go down very quickly, the air inside gets hot enough to ignite the cotton.

I'll look into it. :)
Thank you!
Hope it helps!
You know it will!

I print out your information posts. I’m that slow, lol. But, I’m learning stuff so that’s okay. 👍🏻
Cool. :) I'm also putting these posts into the second version of the guide so they'll be nice and organized.
