  1. ​ @ForageGardener rainshadowing is a major weather factor in micro climates. The Andes is a huge mountain range. I live near the Sierra nevada in the US. Oregraphic lift and orientation is what maximizes the available moisture feed/jet stream. Yet I live in the hottest city on earth at my latitude. Quite fascinating.

  3. You mean the current parallels the continent and the continent parallels the upper winds.
