    Weather Lore
    A rainbow in the evening tide makes the shepherd satisfied.
    Skies high, clouds brown and spring water rising
    Signs of good weather.
    If the weather breaks in the forenoon of Friday or in the afternoon of Saturday
    Signs of storm
    When the crows are lying on the land and facing towards west.
    Signs shown by animals and birds.
    When the robin flies low it is the sign of rain.
