The Himalayas to the north, the Meghalaya plateau to the south and the hills of Nagaland, Mizoram and Manipur to the east influences the climate . Since monsoon winds originating from the Bay of Bengal move northeast, these mountains force the moist winds upwards, causing them to cool adiabatically and condense into clouds, releasing heavy precipitation on these slopes . It is the rainiest region in the country, with many places receiving an average annual precipitation of 2,000 mm (79 in), which is mostly concentrated in summer during the monsoon season . Cherrapunji, located on the Meghalaya plateau is one of the rainiest place in the world with an annual precipitation of 11,777 mm (463.7 in). Temperatures are moderate in the Brahmaputra and Barak valley river plains which decreases with altitude in the hilly areas . At the highest altitudes, there is permanent snow cover . </P> <P> Temperature Temperatures vary by altitude with the warmest places being in the Brahmaputra and Barak River plains and the coldest at the highest altitudes . It is also influenced by proximity to the sea with the valleys and western areas being close to the sea, which moderates temperatures . Generally, temperatures in the hilly and mountainous areas are generally lower than the plains which lie at a lower altitude . Summer temperatures tend to be more uniform than winter temperatures due to high cloud cover and humidity . </P>
