- (continued from previous page)wind brings moisture, and the north wind brings snow.When swallows fly low it is a sign of showers. If seagulls fly inland it is a sign of bad weather.Signs of good weather are, when wild geese fly to the south, and when morning clouds fly to the west.When goats come down from the mountains it is a sign of thunder. When sheep or any animals go together for shelter, it is a sign of rain.
