Answer :
THE MONSOONS
A monsoon system is characterized by a seasonal reversal of prevailing wind directions and by alternating wet and dry seasons.
In India the wet season, called the southwest monsoon, occurs from about mid-June to early October, when winds from the Indian Ocean carry moisture-laden air across the subcontinent, causing heavy rainfall and often considerable flooding.
Usually about three-fourths of the country’s total annual precipitation falls during those months.
During the driest months (called the retreating monsoon), especially from November through February, this pattern is reversed, as dry air from the Asian interior moves across India toward the ocean. October and March through May, by contrast, are typically periods of desultory breezes with no strong prevailing patterns.
Thank you ☺
