What causes the south American coast to be hot and wet while the African coast is hot and dry?
South America has currents that lead towards it with warm, wet air which are perfect conditions for a Rainforest like there. Africa on the other hand has the moisture being sucked away from it at the top and pushed at it in the middle which is why the Sahara desert is at the top it whereas all around it. But, moisture from another current goes towards the middle of Africa from India. I hope that my answer helped.
