- Weather Lore
1st February 1938
When the frog is of a golden colour
it is the sign of good weather .When the frog is of a black colour it is the sign of rain.
When the crickets are singing it is the sign of bad weather.A rainbow is a sigb of bad weather.Whhen there are a lot of flies flying about it is the sign of bad weather .
The swallows fly low for bad weather and high for good weather .- Collector
