  2. Watery beams from the sun is a sign of rain.
    When the cock crows on the barn door in the morning it is a sign of a good day.
    To see fish jumping in the water is a sign of coming rain.
    If you see a weather gaul in the morning you'll have a storm soon.
    A dog gets sick and every thing annoys him when bad weather is at hand.
    Whena cock enters a house he is bringing you good news.
