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. The summer monsoon and the winter monsoon determine the climate for most of India and Southeast Asia. Overall, monthly totals average 200-300 mm over the country as a whole, with the largest values observed during the heart of the monsoon season in July and August. There was an early start to monsoon conditions during 1996, with monsoonal rains completely covering India by 30 June, 2 weeks earlier than normal.
So therefore they do have high rainfalls as well as heavy ones too! (Brainiest please?)
