- When the swallows fly high it is a sign of dry weather. When there are red clouds in the west at sunset it is a sign of dry weather. When the north is blue it is a sign of dry weather. When the mountains are covered with a blue mist it is a sign of dry weather. When we see no halo round the moon it is a sign of dry weather. When we see the seagulls along the shore it is a sign of dry weather. When the crows build their nests on the top of the trees it is a sign of dry weather. When we dont hear sounds from far away it is a sign of dry weather.
