Monsoon is a unique climatic factor that differentiates south Asian countries; particularly India and parts of Australia and Africa, from the rest of the world. The term refers to seasonal moisture-rich winds that soak the lands they blow upon, with water that at once heals, but also is potent enough to destroy. The Indian subcontinent is predominantly affected by changes in these winds, which have a southerly and a westerly component. Combined together they constitute the Southwest Monsoon, the harbinger of life and the much needed rains. Almost 70 per cent of India’s food production depends on these rains, so are the rivers that flow through the country’s domestic pipelines.India Gets most of its rainfall by South-West Monsoon.

SOUTH WEST MONSOON:
The southwest monsoon brings rains towards the end of summer as the high pressure built in the Indian Ocean pushes the wind masses towards the low pressure formed on land. It’s the temperature variation between the sea and the landmass – sea air being cooler and land being warmer – that causes the action.Also,wehave to take an important factor called Temperature Gradient into consideration. It is the Temperature Variation Between The landmass and the surrounding sea.
