Question

Explain any four features of monsoon rains

Answer 1

A Monsoon of the Indian subcontinent is among several geographically distributed observations of global monsoon taking place in the Indian subcontinent. In the subcontinent, it is one of oldest weather observations, an economically important weather pattern and the most anticipated weather event and unique weather phenomenon. 

Features of Monsoon Rains 

There are some unique features about the rains that Monsoon brings to the Indian subcontinent. 
"Bursting" of Monsoon Rains 
Monsoon Burst over Mumbai 

Bursting of Monsoon implies the onset of the sudden change in weather conditions in India (typically from hot and dry weather to wet and humid weather during the SW Monsoon) due to abrupt rise in the mean daily rainfall. Similarly the burst of NE monsoon marks an abrupt increase in the mean daily rainfall over the affected regions. 
Monsoon Rain Variability ("Vagaries") 

One of the most commonly used phrases to describe the erratic nature of the Monsoon of the Indian subcontinent is "vagaries of monsoon", used in newspapers,magazines, books, web-portals to insurance plans and India's budget discussions.In some years, it rains too much causing floods in several parts of India, in others it rains too little or not at all causing droughts. In some years when the rain quantity is sufficient, its timing may be arbitrary. In some years, in spite of average annual rainfall, its daily distribution or the areal distribution might be substantially skewed. Such is the variability in the nature of Monsoon rains and weather.
