C'da, I am not an expert in Monsoon and in fact my school knowledge had been like what is mentioned by you (Western Ghat and Eastern Ghat). However, the piece of info which has been cited by Umesh is Originally from "Library of Congress" -- http://lcweb2.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/r?frd/cstdy:@field(DOCID+in0035) Shall we consider this as "Yet another PSEUDO scientific account" ??? Or perhaps LoC hired some ad agency copywriter who probably graduated from a desi school/college sporting the name of some Christian saint ? >The southwest monsoon occurs in two branches.
