was a difference of ten days between the current calendar year and the seasonal average year up to 4^th October 1582 A.D. Therefore, the average year of the current international calendar up to 1582 A.D. lagged behind the seasonal average year and all the weather begins to occur 10 days in advance. When this fact came to the knowledge of the Pope Gregory XIII, he ordered to replace the date of 4^th October 1582 with the date of 14^th October 1582 so that the months would come and go according to the seasons. And he set new rules to reduce the number of leap years to prevent this error for the future also. According to these rules every 100^th year not to be taken as leap year but every 400^th year to be taken as leap year also. But despite that, it will still have one day error in year 3000 C.E. The coming of the seasons of the international calendar months is nothing short of a blessing to people around the world. Because people know in advance what month the weather will be like, they keep it in mind as they plan their next event. To protect our children from extreme heat in our country, Pakistan has holidays every three months of June, July and August. Similarly, farmers around the world plan in advance to sow, harvest and handle their crops in the name of the months of the international calendar. Because of the abundance of weather forecasts, people around the world are not tired of using it.
