Mountains affect climate as mountains receive more rainfall than lower lying areas because the temperatures on top of the mountains are lower that the temperatures at sea level.
This is why snow on the peak of mountains can be seen all year round. As altitude increases, air becomes thinner and is less able to absorb and retain heat.
