Explanation

In the rear of a warm front, winds typically remain steady rather than shifting dramatically. This steadiness occurs because the frontal boundary has moved past and the region is now entirely within the warm air mass, which has established a consistent wind pattern. While the winds may have veered (shifted clockwise) during frontal passage, they stabilize afterward into a persistent direction and speed.
