The correct answer is - windward side.

The windward side is the side of the mountain that has the lower temperatures. This is due to the much higher precipitation that the windward side experiences, and that it has much more cloudy days, while the leeward side is much drier and has much more sunny days.

The mountains are a natural barrier for the air masses, and the air masses tend to accumulate on the windward side. As they accumulate, the windward side becomes cloudy, and very often it receives all of the rainfall, and that makes it cooler than the opposite leeward side.

  • Hence earth is not a complete sphere nor a perfect sphere its a form of oval-shaped epllicics and thus has an ellipsoid revolution and a tilt around the sun on its axis.
  • The bulge at the equator is a product of the spinning of the earth and modern geodesy takes this ellipsoidal as a spheroid.
