Why does the western side of Oregon receive more rain than the eastern side?

The western side of Oregon receives more rain due to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, which brings moisture-laden air masses that result in precipitation. In contrast, the eastern side of Oregon is in rain shadow of the Cascade Mountain Range, which blocks much of the moisture from reaching that region, resulting in a drier climate.
