Hawaii's coastal areas typically receive moderate rainfall, with some areas being wetter than others due to its varied terrain.

Hawaii's coastal areas generally receive moderate rainfall. While the islands are known for their lush landscapes, the amount of rainfall can vary significantly depending on the location. Coastal regions, such as those on Oahu and Maui, experience relatively mild and consistent rainfall throughout the year. However, certain coastal areas, like those on the windward (eastern) sides of the islands, receive more rainfall due to the island's geography and trade winds. The leeward (western) sides of the islands tend to be drier, with areas like Kona on the Big Island receiving less precipitation, creating diverse microclimates.
