Himalayan regions receive snowfall in the winter months. Himalayas and the Thar Desert substantially influence the Indian climate. The Himalayas block the cold winds from Central Asia. This keeps the Indian subcontinent warmer than places with similar latitudes. Thar Desert attracts the south west monsoons during the June to October post summer months‚ providing most of the rainfall in India. Summer: March to June are the Summer months in most parts of India. North Western India has April to July

The greenhouses complex in the province of Almería‚ Andalucía‚ Spain‚ is visible from space.[3]As they may enable certain crops to be grown throughout the year‚ greenhouses are increasingly important in the food supply of high-latitude countries. One of the largest complexes in the world is in Almería‚ Andalucía‚ Spain‚ where greenhouses cover almost 50‚000 acres (200 km2).[4] Greenhouses are often used for growing flowers‚ vegetables‚ fruits‚ and transplants.

called Hurricanes. A hurricane is an intense‚ rotating oceanic weather system that possesses maximum sustained winds exceeding 74 mph. It forms and intensifies over tropical oceanic regions. Hurricanes are generally smaller than storms in mid-latitudes‚ typically about 311 miles in diameter. At the ocean’s surface‚ the air spirals inward in a counterclockwise direction. This cyclonic circulation becomes weaker with height‚ eventually turning into clockwise outflow near the top of the storm. Hurricanes

lengthening as the season progresses after the solstice. The tilt of the Earth’s axis relative to its orbital plane plays a big role in the weather. The Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.44° to the plane of its orbit‚ and this causes different latitudes on the Earth to directly face the Sun as the Earth moves through its orbit. It is this variation that primarily brings about the seasons. When it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere‚ the Southern Hemisphere faces the Sun more directly and thus experiences
