Monsoons are extended periods of heavy rain and torrential downpours. They are also accompanied by thunder, lightning, strong winds and storms. The monsoon season usually begins in the month of June and lasts until September. This, however, is for India and does not reflect the monsoon seasons in other regions and countries.
