- There are a lot of Omens about the weather. Some of which are:- A red sky at morning is the shepards warning! A red sky in the day is the shepards delay! A red sky in the night is the shepards delight! If the stars are bright at night it is a sign of frost. When the sky is dark at night it is a sign of rain. When you see a dog eating grass it is a sign of rain also. When you see a blue light in the fire it is a sign of frost.
