Northeast monsoon winds generally blow from which direction?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Northeast

The direct answer is D: northeast monsoon winds generally blow from the northeast. A wind is named according to the direction from which it comes, not the direction toward which it goes. Step by step, during the northeast monsoon season, winds move from the land area of the northeast toward the surrounding sea; after crossing the Bay of Bengal, they bring rain to parts of southeastern India, especially Tamil Nadu. Option A is wrong because southwest describes the southwest monsoon, not the northeast monsoon. Option B is wrong because west is not the general source direction here. Option C is wrong because a wind coming from the south would be called a southerly wind. Option D is correct because the stated name identifies its source direction. Memory cue: read wind names as “coming from.”
