    If the day is wet and if you see a small pice of blue sky it will dry. If the day is wet and the cock crows the day will dry. If there is a rainbow in the sky it is the sign of rain. If there is a circle round the moon it is the sign of bad weather.
    If there is a star near the moon it is the sign of rain. If the hens are picking themsevels it is the sign of rain.
