When I was thirteen years of age we all went on a party of pleasure to the baths near Thonon; the inclemency of the weather obliged us to remain a day confined to the inn. Based on the context, what does the word inclemency mean?

Answer:

From using context clues inclemency would mean harshness of severity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence also says that they had to remain the day confined in the inn.This gives you a clue,they were planning to go somewhere outdoors maybe and due to the weather the couldn't.The weather must have somehow be bad.

I really hope this helps.
