- When the wind blows from the west that is the time we have most rain.
At night when you see a ring round the moon it is a sign of wet stormy weather.
Another sign for wet weather is to see the crows in lines on the walls of the farms.
When you hear the badgers and foxes barking and crying on the mountain at night that is another sign of storm.
You can know that the rain is coming when you see the fog or mist on the mountain and it going towards the sea.
