    Thunder and Lightning: -
    The sky in one direction becomes overcast with ink-black clouds, white clear in the opposite point. Cattle becomes restless, low mournfully and seek shelter. Sheep bleat and come down from the mountains. The atmosphere becomes oppressive. Rooks and other birds call.
