    the road is flying about. When the waves on the sea make a great noise rolling in and when shadows appear in the lake. When winged ants are seen flying about. When the smoke blows down to the ground. When the flame in the fire appear blue. If the moon appears red we usually have high winds. If the birds appear tame and come near the houses in winter, snow generally follows.
