Parts of western coast and northeastern India receive
over about 400 cm of rainfall annually. However, it is
less than 60 cm in western Rajasthan and adjoining
parts of Gujarat, Haryana and Punjab.
Rainfall is equally low in the interior of the Deccan
plateau, and east of the Sahyadris. A third area of low
precipitation is around Led in Jammu and Kashmir.
The rest of the country receives moderate rainfall.
Snowfall is restricted to the Himalayan region.
Owing to the nature of monsoons, the annual rainfall
is highly variable from year to year.
Variability is high in the regions of low rainfall such as
parts of Rajasthan, Gujarat and the leeward side of the
Western Ghats. As such, while areas of high rainfall are
liable to be affected by floods, areas of low rainfall are
drought-prone
 The Himalayas protect the subcontinent from
extremely cold winds from central Asia. This enables
northern India to have uniformly higher temperatures
when compared to other areas on the same latitudes.
 Similarly, the peninsular plateau, under the influence
of the sea from three sides, has moderate
temperatures. Despite such moderating influences,
there are great variations in the temperature
conditions.
 Nevertheless, the unifying influence of the monsoon
on the Indian subcontinent is quite perceptible.
The seasonal alteration of the wind systems and the
associated weather conditions provide a rhythmic
cycle of seasons.
Even the uncertainties of rain and uneven
distribution are very much typical of the monsoons.
The Indian landscape, its animal and plant life, its
entire agricultural calendar and the life of the
people, including their festivities, revolve around
this phenomenon.
