- (continued from previous page)If the sea gulls flock together on the land its the sign of bad weather.
When rats become plentiful around barns and stables its the sign of bad weather.
If the sun is red when tis sinking its the sign of good weather.
If the wind is from the west when the sun is sinking its the sign of good weather.
When the mountains look near its the sign of rain.
When spiders creep out from their cob webs its the sign of rain.
If the smoke goes up straight the chimney through calmness its the sign of rain.- Informant
