Which outcome occurs when intense orographic lift acts upon humid air masses moving through narrow mountain stream valleys?

💡 Explanation

Localized precipitation increases because ascent amplifies adiabatic cooling causing supersaturation, triggering condensation by the seeder-feeder mechanism. Therefore orographic heavy rainfall occurs rather than uniform coastal or leeward effect under ordinary conditions.
