  1. A rainbow signifies bad weather.
    If one in the morning is worse than one in the evening. Another sign of bad weather is a dark and gloomy sky, when crows fly low, when the south west wind blow, when the duck quack loudly and the peacock cry is also a sign of bad weather. When the stars are in the sky it is for fine frosty weather.
