    When the dog is sleeping in the day-time it is a sure sign of rain.
    It is a sign of snow to see the hens sleeping.
    When the clouds in the sky are blue it is a sign of thunder.
    When you see a ring around the moon it is a sign of rain.
    When it is red at the bottom of the sky it is a sign of Frost.
