The monsoon rains are caused by the seasonal shift in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), a band of low pressure that lies near the equator. During the southwest monsoon, the ITCZ moves northward over India, bringing with it moisture-laden winds from the Arabian Sea. These winds rise up the Western Ghats, the mountain range that runs along the western coast of India, and cool, causing the water vapor to condense and fall as rain.<\/p>\n<p>The southwest monsoon is the most important source of rainfall for <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> Kerala.
