When precipitation occurs out ahead of an advancing front it is typically this type of front?
This is typically a cold front. As the cold air mass moves under the warm air mass, it pushes the warm air upwards, where it condensates and creates precipitation.

What are the differences between a cold and warm fronts?
A warm front is a front that is created when a warm air mass and a cold air mass meet but do not mix. The warm air mass slowly moves and catches up to the cold air mass and slowly crashes into it, then the warm air mass rises and rains. After a little while the air masses go away from each other. A cold front is created when a fast moving cold air mass colides with a slow moving warm air mass, the warm air mass rises, rains, and they go away from each other eventually.
