Cumulus clouds have a net cooling effect while Cirrus have a net warming effect. At night, most any cloud will make it warmer by trapping radiation (heat) from the earth. During the day, most clouds will act to block solar radiation and make it a little cooler.

As the warm front approaches, these clouds may be followed by thicker clouds and precipitation.
