The Pacific Ranges block any most air from the Pacific, and force the humidity to fall as rain. Storms form over the Great Plains when cool air from the north meets with warm, humid air from the Gulf of Mexico. However, the Rocky Mountains block any humid air from the Gulf, so it can't reach the basins and plateaus.

Drainage basins are separated from each other by an area of higher ground called a drainage divide. North America has 5 large Continental Divides that separate the drainage basins of the Pacific, Arctic, and Atlantic Oceans, Hudson Bay, the Great Lakes, and the Gulf of Mexico.
