  1. (continued from previous page)
    hills seem near. Or when they are covered with a fog. In the morning if you ever notice a thick fog, that is a sign of heat. A sign of a storm is when we have a very strong wind from the east. When we hear the curlew cry that's a sign of bad weather. Another sign of rain is when the seagulls come inland.
