  1. (continued from previous page)
    weather when the crane leaves the bogs and goes to high lands.
    It is a sign when the far off hills look near and when the sky is grey. It is sign of good weather when there is a lot of dust on the road.
    It is the sign of good weather when the smoke goes up straight from the chimney.
    When there are blue blazes in the fire it is the sign of storm.
