Read more: Places in the World that have similar climates to places in CanadaMonsoons formed on our planet due to differential heating between landmasses and oceans, coupled with the seasonal shift in wind patterns. During summer, landmasses heat up more quickly than oceans, creating low-pressure systems over land. This draws in moisture-laden winds from the oceans, resulting in heavy rainfall, while during winter, the reverse occurs, with dry winds blowing from land to sea. This cyclical pattern of seasonal winds and rainfall defines the monsoon phenomenon.
