Prevailing wind in the Philippines from November to April is known as what?

Habagat

Monsoon

Amihan

From November to April the Philippines experiences the northeast monsoon, known locally as Amihan. This season brings winds blowing from the northeast, carrying cooler, drier air across the archipelago. Amihan is the specific local term that describes this seasonal wind pattern, distinguishing it from Habagat, which is the southwest monsoon bringing warmer, wetter conditions from May to October. While monsoon and trade winds describe broader atmospheric patterns, Amihan names the particular NE monsoon season that characterizes those months.
