- (continued from previous page)When the smoke goes up high.
When there is a mist in the morning.
When there is a rainbow on Saturday that is a sign of a wet week.
Whe the sun goes down red that us a sign of frost.
When there are worms on the road that is a sign of rain.
When there is dust on the road that is a sign of rain
When the cat sits in the sun that is the sign of good weather.
When you can hear the Glasslough train plainly it is a sign of rain.
When far-away hills seem near it is a sign of rain.
