Who gets the most rain the east or west coast of Australia?

Australia's east coast gets considerably more rain than the western coast. This is the same as several other major continents. The east coast of Australia faces the Pacific Ocean, which has warmer sea temperatures than the Indian Ocean in the west. The simplest explanation here is that rain forms through condensation which occurs when warm air meets cooler air. Cold ocean currents off the western coast mean less rainfall is brought to the region, because there is less variation in sea and air temperatures (except in the northwest, which is prime Cyclone territory in summer). In Australia (and several other continents) there are more mountains in the east. These mountains create an effect known as orographic uplift. This means that, as air mass is forced from lower altitudes to higher elevation, it expands and cools, raising the relative humidity, thus creating precipitation, or rain. In turn, these mountains then trap the moist air, preventing it from extending inland further
