1. The 4 types of air-masses are : Maritime Tropical (mT) - Wet and Warm
Maritime Polar (mP) - Wet and Cold
Continental Tropical (cT) - Dry and War
Continental Polar (cP) - Dry and Cold
2. Maritime Tropical would more likely bring a hurricane.
3. Continental Tropical because it is dry and warm.
4. The arctic air mass brings lake-effect snowstorms.
5. The two other air masses are arctic and highland. A highland air mass is in regions with large elevation changes over short distances. An arctic air mass has the same characteristics of polar, except it is much colder.
