Question
Give a reason for the following:
Winds are mostly offshore during the cold season.
Short Note
Solution
Land loses heat fast and high pressure develops over it during the cold season. The surrounding seas remain warm and have low pressure during this time. Thus winds blow from land to sea and are offshore.
