Hi,
I am not sure which is correct and why:
A. What a lovely wether!
B. What lovely wether!
I would say A., but my book says B. Is it because the weather is uncountable word?
Thank you, Honza |

The weather is lovely, so you say, "What lovely weather."
You don't say "a weather" unless "weather" is used as an adjective: "He read a weather report saying it would be lovely today."
(Don't forget the "a" in weather . . . .)
