India Climate:
India's climate is strongly influenced by the Himalayas and the Thar Desert. The Himalayas, along with the Hindu Kush mountains in Pakistan, prevent cold Central Asian katabatic winds from blowing in, keeping the bulk of the Indian subcontinent warmer than most locations at similar latitudes. Concurrently, the Thar Desert plays a role in attracting moisture-laden southwest summer monsoon winds that, between June and October, provide the MOST of India's rainfall.
At the moment, India’s climate is governed by the Monsoon. Monsoons are seasonal winds that bring moist air from oceans and seas over land. Most of the country has three seasons: hot and dry, hot and wet (monsoon), and cool and dry.
During the hot and dry season, this usually lasts from early march to June. There are high temperature by intermittent winds- meaning stopping and starting at irregular sections of winds, and occasional dust storms.
The start of the hot and wet season, the “burst of the monsoon”, often begins in mid- June but may start as early as may in the south around Kerala and Tamil Nadu. In my opinion I think it’s mostly around the southern parts the earliest because it revives the most ocean/sea from the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal. This then builds up the Monsoon to the upper parts (northern) of India. Strong, humid winds from the south west and south bring very heavy rains that fall almost daily in the middle or late afternoon. Usually about three quarters of India encounter falls during this season.
Eventually the rains tapers off, and by late October cool, dry northerly air has replaced the humid air over the peninsula. This marks the start of cool and dry season, which lasts to February.
Indian weather is a lot more difficult and disorganised then London, England weather. London’s rainfall is not the slightest bit as harsh as the monsoon rainfall. As rainfall in India lasts for 6 weeks+ whereas England is on and off for a couple of days/weeks. Its similar
