The difference is that windward gets more rain, is wetter, and is the side of the mountain that is closest to the ocean. On the other hand the leeward is the farthest from shore and is drier but still gets rain.
The windward side is a lot rainier than the leeward side of a mountain. This is because the prevailing winds come up and the cool air tries to hold that much moisture. But since cool air can't hold as much moisture as warm air, it begins to precipitate on the windward side (the side of mountain that is facing the prevailing winds). The dry air moves on to the leeward side (the side of a mountain that is not facing prevailing winds) and stays there, usually causing deserts to form. A good example is eastern Oregon and Washington.
You COULD say: Their deserts are the result of the rain-shadow caused by the mountain ranges.

Tokyo is in leeward slope.
The windward side of the mountain has most of the precipitation. This happens because it gets colder the higher you go. As the air cools off, it reaches its dew point temperature,and the moisture in the air condenses to form clouds, and eventually rain, or snow.
Windward. Facing toward the wind.
In general, most dunes have a windward side and a leeward side. The windward side is the side on which wind strikes the dune, leeward is the opposite side. The force of the wind will affect the sand on the windward side differently from the leeward side.
It is the sloped side of a mountain that is colder and gets more rain. Why? Because the leeward side is the opposite of the windward side and is also dryer because when the clouds climb the mountain range (windward side) they loses all their water so there is none left for the leeward side.

I do not know what you are talking about but here is some basic information about Leeward and Windward. Windward and leeward are two opposite words used on boats. Windward is the direction from which the wind is blowing at the time in question. Leeward is the direction downwind from the point of reference. Windward = the direction that the wind is coming from Leeward = the direction that the wind is going I hope you can figure out the answer from there I am sorry I don't know what you are talking about.
Rainfall on the windward and leeward sides of a mountain differ in the amount, whereby the windward side receives more rainfall.

The windward side of the mountain has most of the precipitation. This happens because it gets colder the higher you go. As the air cools off, it reaches its dew point temperature,and the moisture in the air condenses to form clouds, and eventually rain, or snow.
It is downwind. The wind blows from windward to leeward.
The climate on the leeward side of a mountain differs from that on the windward side mostly in
