Solution
Verified by Toppr

Option "A" is the correct answer.
EXPLANATION:
There are two types of articles:
DEFINITE ARTICLE (THE) : Article 'the' is used to refer to a DEFINITE thing or person.
INDEFINITE ARTICLE(A/AN): Article 'a/an' is used to refer to a thing or person in general. For instance: man, door etc.
Article 'a' is used with consonant sounds whereas article 'an' is used with vowel sounds.
In the first blank, article "the" will be used because they are discussing a specific day (DEFINITE) when the weather was raining. Therefore, a/an is incorrect.
In the second blank, article "a" will be used as the speaker is mentioning about the event for the first time.
