- When a blue blaze appears in the fire, people say that it is the sign of warm weather.
When a robin comes in to the house people around my district say that is the sign of a storm. When the dog begins to eat grass that is the sign of rain. When the cow begins to smell it is the sign of a thunder - storm. When the cat scrapes the legs of a table it is the sign of rain. When the swallows fly high, it is the sign of good weather. When the sun sets red people around my district say it is the sign of rain and when it sets yellow it is the sign of good weather.- Collector
