Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
The 'Medieval Warm Period' (roughly 950-1250) was a period of relatively warm conditions in the North Atlantic region, likely due to increased solar activity and reduced volcanic activity.
Explanation:
Lake-effect snow occurs when cold, dry air moves over a relatively warm lake, picking up moisture and heat, which leads to intense convection and heavy snowfall downwind of the lake.
