What would be the influence on the weather conditions when in mid-winter a feeble high pressure develops over the north-western part of India?
1. High and dry winds would blow outward from this high pressure area.
2. The northern plain would become cold.
3. Scorching winds (locally called loo) would blow during the day- time.
4. There would be torrential rains brought by thunderstorms.
Select the correct answer using the code given below.

{'weather conditions': [0, 0, 1, 2], 'dry winds': [0, 0, 1, 2], 'torrential rains': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'thunderstorms': [1, 1, 0, 3], 'winds': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'high pressure area': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'feeble high pressure': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'northern plain': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13]}

When a feeble high pressure develops over the north-western part of India in mid-winter, it would have the following influences on weather conditions:

1. High and dry winds would blow outward from this high pressure area: This means that the winds would be strong and lack moisture. As a result, it would lead to dry weather conditions.

2. The northern plain would become cold: The presence of high pressure would result in a sinking motion of air, which in turn can bring colder temperatures to the area. So, the region would experience a drop in temperature.

Therefore, option 1 is correct because it includes the correct influences of the feeble high pressure over the north-western part of India in mid-winter, which are the outward blowing of high and dry winds and the cooling of the northern plain.

The other options are not correct because they either include incorrect influences or they miss out on mentioning the correct influences.
