A cold front is defined as the transition zone where a cold air mass is replacing a warmer air mass. Cold fronts generally move from northwest to southeast. The air behind a cold front is noticeably colder and drier than the air ahead of it. When a cold front passes through, temperatures can drop more than 15 degrees within the first hour.

Depends on the season. In summer, cold fronts may bring thunderstorms and hail, followed by dry and milder weather (not as hot, but in continental areas, the dryness may paradoxically bring hotter daytime temperatures).
In winter, cold fronts bring cool/cold air and quick storms - rain and hail in warm climates, snow in cold climates.
