The correct spelling is orographic rainfall instead of orographic rainfall. When moist air is lifted over a mountain by the wind, the result is orographic rainfall.

What types of rainfall are there?

The main types of rainfall are convective, frontal, orographic, and cyclonic. Convective rainfall occurs when warm air rises and cools, leading to condensation and precipitation. Frontal rainfall happens when two air masses with different temperatures meet, causing the warm air to rise and cool. Orographic rainfall occurs when moist air is forced to rise over a mountain range, cooling and creating precipitation. Cyclonic rainfall results from the convergence of air masses around a low-pressure system, leading to widespread precipitation.
