  1. Sayings - The Wind

    Share Share Post
    S.E. wind brings most rain to the district
    North wind forecasts coming storm
    When the wind whistles it betokens rain
    When the wind blows from Carrick it is the sign of rain

    Sayings
    Wet and windy May fills the haggard with corn and hay
    Its a bad wind that does not blow good for somebody
