Question

What is the local name of winter rainfall caused by western cyclonic disturbances in north and north-western India?

Answer 1

Answer:

They cause the much needed winter rains over the plains and snowfall in the mountains. (e) Although, the total amount of winter rainfall locally known as 'Mahawat' is small, it is of immense importance for the cultivation of 'rabi' crops.

Western disturbances start declining in numbers after winter. During the summer months of April and May, they move across north India. The southwest monsoon current generally progresses from east to west in the northern Himalayan region, unlike western disturbances which follow a west to east trend in north India with consequent rise in pressure carrying cold pool of air. This helps in the activation of monsoon in certain parts of northwest India. It also causes pre-monsoon rainfall especially in northern India
