    Weather Lore (Continued)
    Signs of Snow:
    When the North wind blows.
    When you see the goldfinch out.
    When you see the sheep with humps on them.
    When the sky is bad looking.
    When the Robin is bold.
    When the tops of your fingers are cold.
    Collector Ethel Mullarkey, Cappatagle, Ballinasloe.
    Got from Mr. Michael Finn, Cappatagle, Ballinasloe.
