Concept/Grammar rules

Application

As we know that ‘weather’ is an uncountable noun and the use of article ‘a’ before it is not correct.

So, the article ‘a’ before ‘terrible weather’ must be removed.

Correct sentence would be:

With this heat wave on, we are having terrible weather.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
