A
Kokura
💡 Explanation:
Kokura was indeed the primary target for the second atomic bombing mission on August 9, 1945. However, due to heavy cloud cover and smoke over the city, the bomber 'Bock's Car' diverted to its secondary target, Nagasaki. Kokura was spared destruction due to these weather conditions.
