Hey Mate !

Here's your answer

_______________________________

Monsoon Rain
___________

The seasonal wind of the Indian Ocean and southern Asia, blowing from the southwest in summer and from the northeast in winter. The season during which the southwest  monsoon  blows .

Flash flooding is a serious danger during the  monsoon . Dry washes can become raging rivers in an instant, even when no storms are visible as a storm can cause a flash flood tens of miles away .

A monsoon is a seasonal shift in the prevailing wind direction, that usually brings with it a different kind of weather. It almost always refers to the Asian monsoon , a large region extending from India to Southeast Asia where monsoon conditions prevail.

Most of the time during the summer, the land is warmer than the ocean. This causes air to rise over the land and air to blow in from the ocean to fill the void left by the air that rose. As you know, rising air leads to cloud formation and precipitation.

The features of advancing monsoon season are:

The low-pressure condition over the northern plains intensifies at this time. 

It attracts the trade winds from the southern hemisphere. These south-east trade winds cross the equator and blow in a south-westerly direction to enter the Indian peninsula as the south-west monsoon. These winds bring abundant moisture to the subcontinent. 

The monsoon winds cover the country in about a month; barring the extreme north-west. The windward side of the Western Ghats receives very heavy rainfall, early in the rainy season. 

The Deccan Plateau and parts of Madhya Pradesh also receive some rain, in spite of lying in the rain shadow area. The north-eastern part of the country receives the maximum rainfall of this season. 

Meghalaya receives the highest average rainfall in the world. Rainfall in the Ganga valley decreases from east to west. Rajasthan and parts of Gujarat get scanty rainfall.
