    near.
    When clouds come from the sea, a sign of rain.
    A rainbow in the morning is the shepherds warning.
    A rainbow at night is the shepherds delight.
    When the fire makes funny noises a sign of wind.
    Land wind and honest men go to rest at night.
    Sea winds and rogues arise.
    The wind from the South brings most rain here.
    My mother told me this Weather Lore.
