    going to have good weather.
    When the sky is covered with black clouds it is a sign of rain. When hills appear to be near it is a sign of bad weather but when they are green and far away with a blue mist overhead it (ment) means fine weather. When there is a lot of dust on the roadside we are going to have bad (ether) weather. When the smoke goes straight up it means good weather.
    This is about my native district Limerick where I have lived up to three months ago.
