Detailed explanation-1: -The monsoons are generally experienced near the equatorial region from 20° N to 20° S latitudes. The Indian subcontinent, from 6° 44’ N to 35° 30’ N, is under the influence of these moisture-laden winds.
Detailed explanation-2: -It usually happens between April and September. As winter ends, warm, moist air from the southwest Indian Ocean blows toward countries like India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. The summer monsoon brings a humid climate and torrential rainfall to these areas.
Detailed explanation-3: -There is a rainy season (in this case, the monsoon season), which lasts two to three months at latitude 16° N on the west coast, three to four months at 14° N, six to seven months at 10° N, and eight months at 8° N.
