What is India's climate?

India is a big tropical country and is famous for its diverse climatic features. Most of India falls within the monsoon climate (south and west India) but the wider locations within India include very different climatic characteristics.South and West India has a typical tropical monsoon-based climate. There is heavy rain almost continuously in the months of June, July, August and September. The South-west Monsoon winds first hit the Western coast from the Arabian Sea. They continue traveling towards the north-east, till they dry out.The seasons are:Winter (January and February)Summer (March to May)Monsoon (rainy) season (June to September)Post-monsoon period (October to December)The Eastern coast also receives rain in November from the North-east monsoon winds, which sweep into the mainland from the Bay of Bengal.In Northern India, the climate is very cold due to the higher elevation of the Himalayas.In Central India, near Delhi, the climate is dry, but with greater humidity nearer to the coast. Temperature can rise as high as 42°C in the summer in the central part of the country, while it falls to the negative range in the winter in the Himalayas.


Name of the 6 seasons in Hindi?

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) designates four official seasons: * Winter, occurring between January thru March. The year's coldest months are December and January, when temperatures average around 10-15 °C (50-59 °F) in the northwest; temperatures rise as one proceeds towards the equator, peaking around 20-25 °C (68-77 °F) in mainland India's southeast. * Summer or pre-monsoon season, lasting from March to June (April to July in northwestern India). In western and southern regions, the hottest month is April; for northern regions, May is the hottest month. Temperatures average around 32-40 °C (90-104 °F) in most of the interior. * Monsoon or rainy season, lasting from June to September. The season is dominated by the humid southwest summer monsoon, which slowly sweeps across the country beginning in late May or early June. Monsoon rains begin to recede from North India at the beginning of October. * Post-monsoon season, lasting from October to December. South India typically receives more precipitation. Monsoon rains begin to recede from North India at the beginning of October. In northwestern India, October and November are usually cloudless. Parts of the country experience the dry northeast monsoon. But according to ancient Indian scriptures in Sanskrit, India has 6 seasons of 2 months each# Grishma - Summer : May- June . # Varsha - Rainy . July - Aug. # Sharat - Almost like Autumn. More green. Sept- Oct. # Hemanta- Between Autumn and Winter Nov- Dec. # Shishir - Winter . Mid Dec to Mid - Feb # Vasanta - Spring. Mid Feb - Mid April
