Let us have a look at some of the possible questions based on Weather and the possible answers.

My country has all kinds of weathers, so there is sunny, rainy, stormy and it is nice because one never gets bored of the environment. It is a new day every day and rarely does it seems like the earlier one.

Is the weather the same in all parts of your country?

Our country is very vast and so the weather is quite different in different places. Going towards extreme north, it is likely to be covered for most part of the year while the extreme south tends to be sunny. On the coastal areas, it tends to be tropical wet and high humidity.

Does the weather affect your mood?

Well, sometimes yes. Like if it is a sunny day after long winters I tend to feel more cheerful. While, on rainy days, it is more of calm and light. But, if it is extreme, so for instance, highly stormy or cold, it irritates me, because the work gets stopped because of it.

Does the weather in your country affects the transportation?

Well, it surely does. So, in winters mostly trains or fights get delayed because of fog and sometimes if there is a heavy storm, it takes a toll on the roadways. However, I don’t remember having a major affect on our transportation system.
