Air moving from a higher elevation to a lower elevation can cause turbulence in the air stream increasing air speed at the base of an elevation drop.

Air moving over water will drop in temperature causing moisture evaporation in to the atmosphere. In the winter this is sometimes called "lake effect snow"

How do people who study weather use geography?

To study and describe weather you have to use geography, because weather doesn't happen in isolation. Weather is rain falling on the mountains, or the plains, or the oceans. You always say where it is. Geography also affects the weather. A range of hills means that clouds approaching them are forced to rise. Rising clouds usually drop their rain, which is why the windward sides of mountains are usually wetter than the leeward sides.
