  2. Weather Signs

    Share Share Post
    When the sun is pale when setting, it is a sign of bad weather. If there is a fog going out over the hill, it is a sign of bad weather. When the hen are picking themselves, it is a sign of rain. When the cat has his back to the, it is a sign of rain. When the dog eats grass, it is a sign of rain. The birds fly low when it is near rain. When the Wild Geese come from the North, it is a sign of snow.
