followed by cool air
True. A front forms at the boundary between two air masses with different temperature, humidity, and density characteristics. This contrast in air mass properties leads to the development of a front and associated weather patterns.
Yes, a moving cold front does advance cold air over warm air, leading to the colder air displacing the warmer air. This displacement is one of the factors that can bring about changes in weather patterns, including precipitation and temperature shifts.
True. High air pressure usually indicates stable, dry air which is associated with clear skies and sunny weather.
Cold air aloft is associated with a surface low pressure system. The reverse is true for warm air aloft. In a baroclinic low pressure system, the upper-level low/trough is usually situated over the cold air, while upper level highs/ridges are around warm air aloft.
True. Falling air pressure is typically associated with the approach of a storm because it signifies the movement of low-pressure systems, which are often associated with stormy weather conditions. Rising air pressure, on the other hand, usually indicates fair weather.

Yes they are, due to the abundance of rising motion associated with cold fronts.
No, some people believe this, but it is not a true fact. You have to be infected with the cold virus to get a cold. Being wet is uncomfortable in cold weather but it does not cause you to be infected with the virus.
The carbon monoxide levels in your home may be at their highest during cold weather for a couple of reasons. First, if the weather is cold you are likely running the heater, and gas- or oil-fired heaters can produce carbon monoxide. Second, you probably keep the windows and doors closed as much as possible, trapping carbon monoxide inside the house. The carbon monoxide emitted by a car may increase when it is cold because the engine burns fuel less efficiently when the engine is cold.
