- (continued from previous page)about in the evening it is a sign of intense heat. In the chimney soot loosens and falls down on the hearth in large lumps is a sign of rain. "The north wind doth blow and we shall have snow". When the old women are complaining of feeling cold, it is a sure sign of snow, or when the cat has his back to the fire, and when the smoke descends from the chimney instead of ascending. There are also a few old sayings about the rainbow. "A rainbow at morning is the shepherd's warning". "And a rainbow at night is the shepherd's delight".Name: Kitty Sullivan, Droumsullivan, Bantry, Co. Cork.
