  1. When the sheep are gathered together in the shelter it is a sign of rain. Another sign of dry weather is when the frog is black. When the distant hills look near it is a sign of rain. What ever way the wind blows on Halloween it will blow that way the whole Winter round. If the frogs croak or if the donkey bawls and stands under the hedges it is a sign of rain.
