The most eastern part of the U.S., particularly areas like Maine, experiences a humid continental climate characterized by cold winters and warm summers, with significant precipitation throughout the year. In contrast, the West Coast, especially regions like California, has a Mediterranean climate with mild, wet winters and hot, dry summers, while coastal areas tend to be cooler and more temperate due to ocean influences. These distinct climates are shaped by geographical features, ocean currents, and prevailing winds.

Does it only rain from west to east?

No, but that is probably the most common pattern. Most continents are wetter on the eastern coast than the west. There is far more rain on Australia's eastern side, as with all the major continents, than there is in the west, and this is partially to do with the weather patterns of the Pacific Ocean (in the east) compared to the Indian Ocean (in the west).
