The ocean is also the source of most of the Peninsulaâs weather systems. Great storm. clouds brimming with moisture move inland and run into the foothills of the. Olympic Mountains. The mountains force clouds upward. As the air gets colder. and air pressure decreases, these storm clouds cannot hold as much moisture and. the water falls as rain in the lowlands and snow in the high country. The west side. valleys in Olympic National Park are the wettest spots in the continental United.
