What to Focus On

  • Weather changes quickly; climate changes over a long period.
  • Monsoon means seasonal reversal of winds.
  • India has a hot monsoonal climate.
  • Latitude divides India into tropical and subtropical-temperate regions.
  • The Himalayas block cold winds and trap moist monsoon winds.
  • Land heats faster than water, creating seasonal pressure changes.
  • India has four meteorological seasons.
  • North India has a clear cold season; south India does not.
  • Summer is strongest in April to June in north India.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Weather and climate mean the same thing.

Monsoon is simply any seasonal wind.

The southwest monsoon starts as an independent wind system over India.
