The orographic is caused by the local relief and convectional is due to the solar heat.

Explanation:

  • The orographic precipitation is in the form of rain, snow which pours when the moisture-laden clouds are shifted upwards by the mountain barrier. Rainfall takes place on the windward side and no rainfall is seen on the leeward side is also called a rainshadow area.
  • The convectional rain occurs when the sun heats the earth's surface and it causes the water to evaporate in the form of water vapour and this process forms clouds high in the atmosphere. It's commonly seen in tropical areas. The formation of large cumulonimbus clouds takes place.
