    The moisture-laden wind blows in from the sea and if it meets a mountain range it will be forced to rise. As it rises it is cooled, condensation takes place and it rains on the windward slope of the mountain. As it moves onto the leeward slope, it has lost most of its moisture and it is warmed- resulting in a rain shadow.
