- The west wind is supposed to bring most rain.
When snow is approaching the cat sits with his back to the fire.
Old people suffer from sciatica when there is rain at hand.
It is a sign of bad weather to see wild fowl coming inland.
The soot falls down, the spaniel sleeps.
The spider from his cobweb creeps.
The pussy cat, with velvet paws.
Sits wiping o'er his whiskered jaws
When bad weather is near.
When bad weather is approaching the sheep eat grass throughout the night.
If a dog is seen to eat grass, rain may be expected.
A foggy line around the moon indicates rain.- Collector
