SUMMER SEASON

Short essays are very important in learning to write articles. Here is one on the occasion when the summer season is about to start. Now read the essay :
The hottest season of the year is the summer. It begins from about the third week of April and continues till the end of June. In this season, the sun seems to scorch the earth. As a result, the weather remains very hot and sultry. So people generally keep indoors at noon as far as practicable. Some parts of the country experience a heat wave known as loo that claims many lives each year. There are occasional storms with rain and thunder showers towards the evening and this causes great damage to trees and thatched houses.
Most of the tanks and ponds dry up. People suffer from different diseases. Schools, colleges and courts remain closed because of excessive warm weather. The only bright feature of the season is that it is the time for some of the best fruits—mangoes, litchis, jack fruits, black-berries etc.
Days in the summer are bigger than any other seasons of the year. The sun shines with fire during the days. People get relief in the evening because gentle breeze blowing from the south brings the temperature somewhat down.
