Introduction
Hello Steemians!
We are already in the last week, week 4 of the season 2 of the steemit engagement challenge. I hope you have been enjoying the engagement challenge. I am Kehinde Micheal and my username is @msquaretwins here on this great platform. Today, I am going to be writing about a very important topic put forward by Urdu community, "Weather and our Lives". I hope you will find this article interesting. Happy reading!
How weather affect our life and play important role ? what kind of weather do you like and why you like it.
sourceWeather is the physical state of atmosphere in a place or region. Weather causes the season we are in due to the change of time in the atmosphere. Weather shows the variableness of pressure, temperature, and humidity of one place from another.
Weather affect our lives positively, and at the same time it has a negative effect on our life's. Weather helps us to know the season of the day, and year we are in. In fact, it helps some people to know the particular day of the week they are. Weather dictates the time of the day, by simply looking at the weather, one can deduce if we are in the morning, afternoon or night.
Weather play an important role in our lives in many ways like I have rightly mentioned. Apart from the fact that it helps us to know the time of the day, it also helps us to know the festive period. For example, the Muslims use weather to know the time of their fasting. Some other religions also use weather to know some important time of events.
There is nothing that has a positive side that does not have a negative side. As good as weather can be, it also has a negative effect on our lives. It may cause destruction of properties, death etc. More will be discussed later on this.
What region do you live in? And what are the seasons in your region?
I am from Okeho, a town in Oyo State, Nigeria. But currently, I stay in Ibadan Nigeria. We have two major seasons in Nigeria. There is dry season and raining season. Raining season in Nigeria always start around early March till August or September. Dry season starts from September till end of February.
About the wheather I like, I like wheather that is not too cool or hot. I like a moderate wheather. When a wheather is too hot or cold, I don't feel comfortable. Therefore, I like moderate wheather.
What is your favorite season And why do you like it?
Like I mentioned above, we have two seasons in Nigeria, which are rainy season and dry season. For me, my favourite season is dry season. I prefer dry season to raining season. I like dry season because we don't record destruction of properties and lives in dry season as we do in raining season. Apart from this, I believe people move easily during dry season when compared to raining season. More so, raining season comes with a lot of things that can cause sickness. For instance, mosquitoes which can cause malaria are more during raining season.
Depending on the season in your region or country or city, which rituals are more celebrated?
In my country, we have so many celebration that we do. The most predominant ones are Christmas festival, Easter festival, New year festival and Salah festival. The Christmas and new year festival is always celebrated in December/ January which falls to dry season period in the country. Easter is celebrated in April, and this fall to the rainy season. The Islamic celebration are usually observed in the rainy season.
What clothes and food do you like depending on the season(cultural reflection)?
Depending on the season we are in, I like light cloth, clothes that are not too heavy for me. Like a cloth I uploaded below. Cloth that will make me good irrespective of the season we are in. And example of such kind of cloth is uploaded in the screenshot below
Regarding the food, I love every food that is good. But I like warm wood in respective of the season I am in. But I am cool with cold swallow like Fufu, Eba in as much as I see hot soup to take it. In fact, I prefer Eba, and Fufu to be cold than very hot ones.
Which season's fruit do you like and why?
Normally, In Nigeria, we have more fruits during rainy season than in dry season. During rainy season, there is always natural water from heaven to irrigate the fruit plant. And such there is always plenty of fruits, good fruits and fresh fruits are always in markets all over the places. This is unlike in dry season. The amount of water to irrigate the fruits plant is always limited, and this makes fruits to be scarce during dry season.
In short, I like fruits produced during rainy season than the ones produced during dry season. The fruit's in rainy season are always fresh, succulent and juicy than that in the dry season.
Apart from you, which season do the people of your area prefer?
Well, I think it depends on the job of the people. People who do farming or farmers prefer rainy season to dry season. These people will need water for their plants in farm to grow and germinate very well. But I believe that people who are into office work, business men and women, and construction workers prefer dry season to rainy season because of how rain do disturb during rainy season.
In which season does your area face more difficulties and what are those difficulties?
We face difficulties in my area and even in the whole of the nation Nigeria during rainy season. Rainy season often come with a lot of rain water that often destroy properties, cause death etc. For instance, I can remember how my aunt lost her child to heavy rain and turrent on a faithful day. The water carried both the mother and the child, but the child could not survive it, she died. There are lots of many cases like this during rainy season.
Apart from that, there are always lost of properties and fund during rainy season. Rainy season also causes bad roads, especially some roads that are not tarred. And this often causes accident on the road.
Conclusion
In this post, I have written about how weather affect our lives, and the importance of weather. Also, I have discussed about the season in Nigeria. I also talked about my favourite season in my country and the reason why I chose the season as my favorite season. Lastly, I discussed the season that we do face difficulties in Nigeria. Thank you for reading my article.
I invite @fredquantum, @marajah, @ijelady, @ngoeyin @beautybb, and @temitopef to take part in this contest.
You are quite right on how the rainy season in this part of the world can be disastrous sometimes, one of the major problems is flooding which results from improper waste management or let's say poor drainage system in some cases.
This occurrence is a threat to human lives and properties. You have made a wonderful entry in the contest and I wish you the best. Thanks for the invitation.

Yes Sir! You have mentioned the two solid things that contribute to that. Regarding that, I believe, the onus is on the part of both the citizens and the government. Thank you for supporting this article.

In Nigeria, fruits are not that costly, especially in the south west region of the country. You can get reasonable fruit to eat with 100 naira. Thank you for reading this entry.
Do have a great day!

You don't like extra heat or extra cold, you like moderate weather very much. In fact, you are right. I like that moderate weather a lot. And during the rainy season, mosquitoes grow a lot, which leads to diseases and growth. You're right, this season is really scary. Thank you so much for presenting you so beautifully in the post.

Yes m, there are two climate seasons in Nigeria, which are the dry and rainy s, in a hot that I didn't like heat, I chose to love the rainy seasons. Therein is a disadvantage to it, such as flooding, thundering strike, bad roads, and many more, the occurrence of the rainy season follows with the harvesting of good crops and fruit which is one of the reasons I love this season.
You have written well brother.
Best of luck

This is a good explanation about your favourite weather time @msquaretwins. Weather comes with a lot of benefits as well as bad things depending on your areas of location. Sorry about what happened to you aunt. Like your rightly said, the rainy season comes with a lot of destruction and loss of lives and it is the same in my area. Many people suffer during this time and prefer the dry season.
Thanks for sharing with us

Yes, no doubts that we have destructions during the wet seasons due to the unprecedented flooding that seems like a reoccurring event in our country. But also in the dry season, we have fire outbreaks due to the dry and heat waves.
Also, we have outbreaks during the dry season, especially the FLU. This is when we have larger amounts of dust and dirt in the air due to the peculiar season.
Hahaha, I was just giving my views on the comparison you made as I am a lover of the Wet/Riny season.
Thanks for your thoughts, @msquaretwins
