Detailed Solution

  • During winters, the land cools down quickly whereas the water in the ocean is still at higher temperatures. 
  • Due to this, the air above the ocean is at a lower air pressure than the air above the land.

Hence comparatively cooler winds flow from the land towards the ocean while carrying little water, hence bringing a small amount of rain in winter.
