In comparison to the eastern side, the western side of the Western Ghats is area of high rainfall because the mountains intercept the rain-bearing westerly monsoon winds. ... The heavy, eastward-moving rain-bearing clouds are forced to rise and in the process deposit most of their rain on the windward side.

Due to the Colioris effect, the South-East trade winds once crossing the equator gets deflected and thus converts into the south-west winds.

  • Due to the Colioris effect, the South-East trade winds once crossing the equator gets deflected and thus converts into the south-west winds.
  • The south-west wind obtains moisture from the ocean and comes to India during its summer season.
  • At the time when it hits the mountains of the Western Ghats, there began raining, however, the result of this appears in leeward side getting little or no rain at all.
