Answer:

A. the cloud forms

Step-by-step explanation:

The lighter warm moist air behind the front is lifted upward and "overrides" the colder air. As the air rises, it cools, and if enough water vapor condenses, widespread clouds and precipitation develop. A layer of thin clouds is occasionally observed more than a thousand kilometers in advance of a surface warm front.
