The correct way that weather is affected as winds blow against a mountain is:
**-the wind moves upward, causing rain to fall on the same side of the mountain.**
When moist winds encounter a mountain, they are forced to rise. As the air rises, it cools and condenses, often resulting in precipitation on the windward side of the mountain. This is known as orographic lift.
