Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is D) irony.

Irony can be described as a situation or an even where something that was intended to have a particular result has an entirely different result in real scenario. In other words, it is a difference between what exactly happens and what was expected.

Here, in this question, the event related to weather describes a situational irony.
