Yes, Bucktail is correct. A front is just a boundary separating airmasses and does not ALWAYS mean high or low pressure system associated with it.
A cold front is usually ASSOCIATED with a Low Pressure System of some type, however, a cold front is actually high pressure. A cold front brings cold sinking air making pressure rise.
A warm front is actually low pressure, bringing warm rising air that lowers the actual pressure at mean sea level! Warm fronts can be associated with Low Pressure Systems as well and when they interact with a Low, you get storms, especially when a rising warm front means a cold front and a Low.
So, NOAA is not saying that there is a pressure system at all present, just that a front is in the area. If you look at a Surface Analysis Map, you will notice Cold Fronts and Highs are blue and Warm Fronts and Lows are red. Also, you can see that a front is not always accompanied by the Low or High System.
The NWS will always note Low or High Pressure Systems and where they are located or going.
Hope that explains it
