Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -During the months of October-November, the south-west monsoon winds become weaker and start to retreat from the skies of North India. This phase of the monsoon is known as the retreating monsoon.
Detailed explanation-2: -Such changes in the patterns of atmospheric pressure causes Southwest monsoons to withdraw. Hence, this period is known as the season of retreating Southwest monsoons. By the end of October, these winds retreat from most of northern India because of low temperature and low pressure.
Detailed explanation-3: -Thus, October-November months are associated with retreating monsoons/the transition season.
