Norwester is another name for what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Kal Baisakhi

Norwester refers to a powerful pre-monsoon thunderstorm that commonly affects eastern parts of the Indian subcontinent. It usually develops during the hot season when intense heating and changing air conditions produce unstable weather. The storm can include gusty winds, thunder, lightning, heavy rain, and occasionally hail. In India, this weather event is widely known by the regional name Kal Baisakhi, especially in discussions of West Bengal and neighbouring eastern areas.

Option A is correct because Norwester and Kal Baisakhi are two names for the same type of seasonal storm. Loo is a hot, dry wind rather than a thunderstorm. A cold wave is a period of unusually low temperature, and mango showers are lighter pre-monsoon rains associated especially with parts of southern India. The direction-based English name and the local Indian name should not be confused with these other weather terms. Therefore the correct matching is Norwester–Kal Baisakhi.
