On the windward side of the mountain you would expect what?
The windward side of the mountain has most of the precipitation. This happens because it gets colder the higher you go. As the air cools off, it reaches its dew point temperature,and the moisture in the air condenses to form clouds, and eventually rain, or snow.
Which side of the mountain is considered windward?
It is the sloped side of a mountain that is colder and gets more rain. Why? Because the leeward side is the opposite of the windward side and is also dryer because when the clouds climb the mountain range (windward side) they loses all their water so there is none left for the leeward side.

What is a rain shadow and what is the rain shadow effect?
A rain shadow is a dry area on the leeward side of a mountain where precipitation is blocked by the mountain. The rain shadow effect occurs when moist air is forced to rise over a mountain range, causing it to cool and release most of its moisture on the windward side, leaving the leeward side dry.
What is a dry area on the side of the mountain facing away from the wind?
Rain shadow.

This side of the mountain may also receive less sunlight due to its position, leading to cooler temperatures and less vegetation.
What side of a mountain faces the moisture rich ocean air?
The windward side of a mountain faces the moisture-rich ocean air. As the air is forced to rise over the mountain, it cools and releases moisture in the form of precipitation. The leeward side, on the other hand, tends to be drier as it is sheltered from the moisture-bearing winds.
