Hey there!
-------------------------------------------------------
India experiences four types of seasons:
1. The hot season: (March to May) Due to the movement of the sun towards the north, the vertical rays advance towards the Tropic of cancer. This is the belt of maximum temperature which is headed towards the north during the month of March and April. Temperatures are very high. The coastal parts experience maximum temperature of 35°C and the plains experience temperatures above 40°C.
2. The Monsoon season: (Mid-June to the end of September) Intense heat is prevailed in the Indian subcontinent which causes a low pressure region in Northern plains, which is intense enough to attract moisture bearing winds from the Indian Ocean. These are the south-west trade winds which come from the southern hemisphere and blow over the subcontinent as south-west monsoons. This monsoon is split into two types i.e The Arabian sea branch and The bay of Bengal branch which brings rainfall to the country.
3. The season of the retreating monsoon: (October and November) This period is the transition between the final withdrawal of the South-west monsoon and regular setting in of the north-east monsoon. Clear sky, low humidity and pleasant weather is experienced in the north while the air becomes stagnant in the Deccan.
4. The Cold season: (December to February) The sun shines vertically between the equator and the Tropic of Cancer. The season begins to set in by about the middle of October when the sun's rays do not fall vertically on any part of the Indian subcontinent. Due to the latitude, temperature in general decreases from South to North. Clear skies, fine cool weather, light northerly winds and low humidity are the characteristics of this season. Winter rainfall is experienced in the Tamil Nadu coast by the North-east monsoon wind and the damp wind of the retreating summer monsoon. Rainfall is also experienced in the North-west India due to the temperate cyclones coming from the Mediterranean sea.
