Clue/Question: What the forecaster experienced when he faced the fire.
Answer: A WARM “FRONT“
(Some nice clue words today! I think there’s a tendency to think of the word “rarefy” as being spelled “rarify”, because that’s the way it sounds like it should be spelled. It is a recognized variant of “rarefy”, but not the preferred spelling. English is a very difficult language. There are so many exceptions to the rules. Anyone who can master it, especially as a second language, has an awful lot to deal with.) — YUR
