Tamil Nadu receives less rainfall during the monsoon due to its location on the eastern side of the Western Ghats mountain range, which acts as a barrier to the moist air coming from the Arabian Sea. The rain-bearing winds lose their moisture while crossing the Western Ghats, resulting in reduced rainfall in Tamil Nadu during the monsoon season.
