Detailed explanation-1: -A monsoon is a seasonal change in the direction of the prevailing, or strongest, winds of a region. Monsoons cause wet and dry seasons throughout much of the tropics. Monsoons are most often associated with the Indian Ocean. Monsoons always blow from cold to warm regions.

Detailed explanation-2: -When the air above a land area heats up and rises above the atmosphere, monsoon winds are caused. The process causes the wind to turn from the sea and blow toward the ground. These winds either blow toward the land or out to sea, depending on the season.

Detailed explanation-3: -The poleward limits of monsoon systems are often sites of sharp changes in wind direction. In India, for example, the monsoon blows from the southwest in July and August, and north of India the winds are from the east.
