- Signs of Rain;
When there is a circle round the moon; the nearer the circle to the moon the sooner the rain will come.
When a cat scrapes at the door.
When a dog eats grass
When the sun is red at rising.
When the curlews come to the upland.
When a rat comes in on the ceilingSigns of Good Weather;
When the sky is red after the sun going down.
When dew falls in the evening.
