- The ordinary country-people are very observant and have many signs to enable them to know what kind of weather is near at hand. The different seasons bring different weather signs.
In summertime, especially during the saving of hay people are on the alert for the frog. If his colour is yellow it is a sign of good weather but if it is brownish or dark brown then bad weather or at least rain is to follow. The loud quacking of ducks is a sign of rain and when hens are seen 'to pick themselves' rain may also be expected. When geese fly against the wind it is a sign of bad weather, and when wild geese visit this locality it is a very bad sign of the weather and much snow, hail and rain are sure to follow for a considerable period.
In summer time crows are often seen congregating in meadows where the hay is either in small or big cocks, this flocking together of the crows is regarded as being a certain sign of bad weather ahead.
The appearance of the sky provides many indications for the kind of weather to come.Naturally a clear blue sky means fine weather, but I have heard people say that no matter how cloudy the sky is if the horizon is clear all round(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)- Bailitheoir
