  1. (continued from previous page)
    The sea becomes a muddy green when it is going to rain.
    Worms appear on the top of the ground.
    When the smoke goes to the ground a sign of bad weather, and when it goes up straight a sign of fine weather.
    The soot falls down the chimney.
    The crickets sing when there is a storm approaching.
    The curlews fly inland when it is going to rain.
    The salt gets very damp.
    My mother told me this.
