The correct answer is - B. North Atlantic Drift.

The North Atlantic Drift comes as a result of the convergence of the Gulf Stream and the Labrador Current. It is a warm and moist current that brings a lot of rain, cloudy weather, and moderate climate, in the northwestern part of Europe, mainly in Ireland, the British Isles, and the coastal parts of Norway.
