In which season of Bangladesh does the Kalbaishakhi occur?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a Spring
  2. b Summer
  3. c Rainy season
  4. d Autumn
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: b Summer

The book places the Kalbaishakhi storm in summer, when dry air from the west and north-west meets the monsoon wind.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a Spring: In the book Kalbaishakhi is a storm of the summer.
  • c Rainy season: Not in the rainy season; Kalbaishakhi is a summer (March-May) storm.
  • d Autumn: The book has no Kalbaishakhi in autumn; the Ashwina storm belongs to autumn in West Bengal.
