The cold front became occluded when it was taken over by the faster moving one.
An occluded front occurs when a fast-moving cold front overtakes a slower-moving warm front, leading to the warm air being lifted and squeezed aloft, creating a mix of weather conditions such as rain, snow, and thunderstorms.
Before an occluded front, you may experience warm temperatures and possibly thunderstorms as warm air is lifted ahead of the front. After an occluded front passes, you can expect cooler temperatures, clearing skies, and a decrease in precipitation as the occluded front brings cooler air mass to the region.

In general, "occluded" means blocked or covered. In meteorology, it refers to a front where a cold front overtakes a warm front, resulting in the warm air being lifted off the ground and no longer in contact with the surface.
At an occluded front, rain or snow can fall. Hope this helps. =)
An occluded front.
Before an occluded front, warm and moist weather typically occurs. After an occluded front passes, cooler temperatures and drier conditions are commonly experienced.
No.
When a cold front overtakes a warm front, an occluded front is created. This occurs when the faster moving cold air lifts the warm air completely off the ground, causing a mix of both air masses. The result is a complex weather pattern with precipitation.
