Loo is a characteristic feature of which season?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Summer .

  • Loo is a strong, dusty hot and dry summer wind from the west that blows over North India and Pakistan's western Indo Gangetic plain and is extremely strong during the month of May and June.
  • Due to extremely low humidity and high temperatures, the loo has a severe drying effect on vegetation, causing widespread browning in the areas affected.
