B. There would probably be one peak corresponding to the summer months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Niagara Falls are close to Buffalo, New York, which is one of the snowiest cities in the US. This means that the number of visits in the winter tend to be lower.

The amount of rain in the summer is not that different from the other months, however, the summer weather is the best for visitation, with the warmer weather. So in the summer months there is going to be a peak in the numbers of rain ponchos sold.

So the correct answer is:

B. There would probably be one peak corresponding to the summer months.
