    Sign of good weather: When the sky is red at sunset.
    "Fog on Mussire, and Clarach clear is the surest sign of good weather. (Clárach)
    Fog on a mountain is a sign of rain and fog on a river is a sign of good weather.
    When the stars are glittering at night it is a sign of frost.
    A dark dull day is a sign of thunder.
