Abstract
We define Type I singularities for the mean curvature flow associated to a density (MCF) and describe the blow-up at singular time of these singularities. Special attention is paid to the case where the singularity come from the part of the -curvature due to the density. We describe a family of curves whose evolution under MCF (in a Riemannian surface of non-negative curvature with a density which is singular at a geodesic of the surface) produces only type I singularities and study the limits of their blow-ups.
