I wonder if you could give me some tips on the following sentences:
It's such bad weather that we have to stay at home all day.
It's so bad weather that we have to stay at home all day.
The first sentence is ok. yet the second one is a bit strange. Some english teachers around me support that in the second sentence, the word "the" should be inserted between "bad" and "weather". what's your opion?
My second question is: in "such... that....."structure, if such is followed by an uncountable noun, could "such" be replaced by "so"?
