The cold surface water results in drier air and less rainfall.

Explanation: Upwelling brings cold, nutrient-rich deep water to the surface. Cooler surface water reduces evaporation and moisture in the air, stabilizes the lower atmosphere, and thus leads to less precipitation (though it can increase coastal fog).
