High cliffs over 5,000 meters creating a stream of 'tears' are innumerable.
Mount Waialeale (or Wai'ale'ale) is the crater of the volcano and the second highest point on the island of Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands. In the Hawaiian language, Wai'ale'ale means "rippling water" or "water overflow." In this place high rainfall average of 11500 mm per year, and has reached a record 17 300 mm in 1982.

There are several reasons why Wai'ale'ale have high rainfall. First, Kauai as a place in the north side of the Hawaiian Islands, has more exposure to frontal systems that bring rain in the winter.
Second, Wai'ale'ale have a spherical shape and a cone, so that the peak received quite a lot of wind exposure and generate flow down. Third, the peak is located just below the inversion layer of 1,829 m wind (rain cloud), so the carrier cloud water can not rise higher and lead to strong rainfall.
