Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The rain shadow effect creates a diversity between the two sides of a mountain, the windward side being more wet, and leeward side being more dry. The rain that makes it near the mountain on the windward side will simply roll back down the mountain due to gravity, leaving a rain shadow on the leeward side.
