Why does coromandel receive most rainfall during winter?

The Coromandel Peninsula receives most of its rainfall during winter due to its geographical location and the influence of prevailing westerly winds. As these winds approach the peninsula, they are forced to rise over the mountainous terrain, leading to orographic lifting, which enhances precipitation. Additionally, winter storms and cyclonic systems are more frequent during this season, contributing to the overall increase in rainfall. This combination of factors results in the region's distinct winter rainfall pattern.
