4 1. Relief Rainfall Wind direction Cooler air Warmer air

5 2. Convectional Rainfall Cooler air Ground warms up and then warms up the air

Air Masses 6 Hot Air Cold Air

7 3. Frontal Rainfall Warm air Cold air

8 Use your new knowledge to explain what type of rain we get in each of these locations and why. The Rainforest Cantabria
