Question

Why are the Mango showers named so?

Answer 1

Mango showers are named so because these pre-monsoon rains help in the early ripening of mangoes. They occur towards the end of the summer season, especially in parts of South India like Kerala, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu. Due to their beneficial effect on speeding up the ripening of mangoes, the showers have come to be popularly known as “Mango showers.”
