How are days generally during the hot weather season?

Correct answer: Long

The direct answer is option B: days are generally long during the hot weather season. Earth’s axis is tilted, and as the Northern Hemisphere moves toward its summer season, it receives sunlight for a longer part of each day. More daylight gives the land more time to absorb solar energy, contributing to high temperatures. In India, the hot weather season occurs before the southwest monsoon and is generally associated with long, hot days, although exact day length varies with latitude and date. Option B is correct because “long” is the normal seasonal description. Option A is wrong because very short days are more associated with winter conditions in the Northern Hemisphere. Option C is wrong because summer does not make the days always dark; daylight is actually longer. Option D is wrong because snow and icy conditions are not the general feature of India’s hot weather season. Memory cue: summer means longer daylight and stronger heating, while winter generally means shorter daylight.
