    11. When the wind is whistling around the chimney or a blue flame in the fire this is another bad sign.
    12. When there is a puff down that is when the smoke does not go straight up the chimney this is another sign of rain.
    13. Old people know when rain or frost is near as their bones become stiff and sore.
