In the northern hemisphere Atlantic Ocean, where storms generally track from east to west, and their winds rotate counter-clockwise, the north side (or east side of a north-tracking storm) is the wetter side, while the south side (or west side of a north-tracking storm) is the dryer sides. Note that the wet side has higher-speed winds because the storm speed is additive, while the dry side has lower-speed winds because the forward tracking speed of the storm reduces the wind speeds.
