- There are many old sayings about the weather around this district. These are some of them.
If a dog was eating grass, the people say it would be a sign of rain. If the crows were flying low that would be another sign.
If a rainbow was in the sky in the morning that would be another sign. If the smoke was going crooked that would be another symbol of rain.
