What to Focus On

  • India’s climate is Tropical Monsoon Climate.
  • The main unifying feature is the monsoon.
  • Monsoon means seasonal reversal of winds.

  • Latitude creates north-south climatic differences.
  • The Himalayas block cold winds from Central Asia.
  • The Himalayas help monsoon winds give rainfall in the north-east and Indo-Gangetic Plain.

  • The Hot Dry Season is from March to May.
  • The Rainy Season is from June to September.
  • The Retreating South-West Monsoon is from October to November.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Tropic of Cancer only divides India into two parts on a map, so it has no real effect on climate.

The Himalayas mainly matter because they are a high mountain chain, not because they control winds and rainfall.

The Arabian Sea branch and the Bay of Bengal branch are equally strong, and the Bay of Bengal branch is the one that gives the strongest rainfall over India.
