  1. Temperate is a location that is neither very hot nor very cold....which includes for all intents and purposes the United States (assuming your from the US). So any forest within the US (mainland) is temperate. Hawaii has tropical forests.


  2. Temperate does mean north of the tropic of capricorn but south of the arctic circle as well as south of the tropic of cancer but north of the antarctic circle. Four distinct seasons with cold winters and hot summers. The deciduous part the word means falling off, the leaves fall of the trees in Autumn. Not for all the trees there but for many of them. The midwest and eastern US is this biome if you look at the drawing at this link. Parts of the area were swamps and drained. The link describes the annual rainfall and other aspects of your question.

  3. Temperate forests are forests that grow in the worlds temperate zones. Temperate zones are between the Antarctic around the south pole and the tropics below the equator and between the tropics above the equator and the arctic around the north pole. Deciduous forests are forests consisting mostly of broad leaf trees that loose their leaves in the winter. Forests with mostly pine type trees are called coniferous. Deciduous forests are usually not rainy or swampy. They have medium rainfall and rich loam for soil.

  4. In  certain period of the year it is rainy.
