<h3><u>A Monsoon: What Is It?</u></h3>

A monsoon is a change in wind patterns that frequently results in either a very wet or a very dry season. Although monsoons are typically associated with sections of Asia, they can occur in many tropical and subtropical climates, including numerous locations in the United States.

<u>What triggers a monsoon?</u>

A seasonal change in the winds is what triggers a monsoon. The seasonal differences in land and water temperatures cause the winds to fluctuate. For instance, the ground warms up more quickly than bodies of water at the start of summer. The direction of the monsoon winds is always from chilly to warm. In the summer, conditions arise that cause the wind to blow in the opposite direction.
