- If the pigs are constantly grunting it shows rain is to come. Old people too can tell when rain or bad weather is coming as their bones crack and ache. If they have corns, they have a burning feeling before rain will come. "The rainbow at night is the shepherd's delight, The rainbow in the morning is the shepherd's warning." After a storm comes a calm - wet Friday, wet Sunday, meaning that if Friday is wet the following Sunday is sure to be wet.
