The Retreating Monsoon Season, which typically occurs during October and November, is known as the 'transition season'. During this period, the Southwest Monsoon winds start withdrawing from the northern plains as the low-pressure trough weakens. This leads to clear skies and a rise in temperature, especially in October, often called 'October heat'. The Hot Weather Season is summer, Cold Weather Season is winter, and Southwest Monsoon is the main rainy season, none of which fit the description of retreating winds and clear skies as a transition.
