Description:

The correct answer is:

✅ "It affects northern Australia during the summer months."

Key Characteristics of the Australian Monsoon:

Seasonal Timing:

Occurs December–March (austral summer).

Brings heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and humidity to northern regions (e.g., Darwin, Kimberley, Cape York).

Regional Impact:

Primarily affects northern Australia (north of the Tropic of Capricorn).

Associated with the "Wet Season"—flooding and tropical cyclones are common.

Cause:

Driven by seasonal wind shifts (northwest monsoon winds) and the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).

Why Not the Other Options?

Southern Australia: Rarely impacted; its climate is Mediterranean/temperate.

No effect: False—the monsoon dominates northern Australia’s summer weather.

Fun Fact: The monsoon delivers 75% of northern Australia’s annual rainfall in just a few months! 🌧️🐊
