SSC MTS - 16/10/2024 - (12:30 PM - 2:30 PM) • General Awareness • Q55

Identify the INCORRECT pair.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Blossom Shower - Andhra Pradesh.

The incorrect pair is “Blossom Shower – Andhra Pradesh”. Blossom showers, or pre-monsoon rains, are actually associated with Kerala, not Andhra Pradesh. These showers occur in March–April, aiding the flowering of crops. The other pairs are correct: Mango showers occur in Kerala before the mango harvest, Nor’westers are violent thunderstorms in West Bengal during pre-monsoon months, and Bardoisila refers to strong pre-monsoon winds in Assam. Accurate knowledge of regional weather phenomena is essential for agriculture and disaster preparedness.
