Correct Answer: High temperatures are associated with high humidity.
Solution : The correct option is High temperature associated with high humidity.
Between the hot, wet season in October and the cold, dry winter in November, there is a transitional time. The southwest monsoons weaken and withdraw or retreat from India at this time, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the "retreating monsoon" or "transition season". Clear skies and a temperature rise signal the end of the monsoon. The nights are colder despite the warm days. The term "October heat" refers to this occurrence.
