How does temperature impact the elevation distribution of orographic precipitation?
Examining two extreme cases, one very cold and the other very warm, the amount of precipitable water in the very cold one will be far less than that in the very warm one.  Even fully saturated, the very cold air mass would need to be lifted quite high to form large enough ice crystals or water droplets to have enough mass to begin falling.  Meanwhile, the warm air mass would produce larger droplets very quickly.  Thus the warm air mass would begin to produce precipitation at a lower altitude, and with greater intensity.

Because the air masses begin precipitating at different altitudes, the point of maximum intensity would also be lower for the warm air mass.
