   Long ago the people had many beliefs concerning the weather. If people were out in the night and to see a star falling they would all be saying we will have a rest tomorrow because it will be wet. Spots in the Sun also are signs of bad weather especially wind, rain and frost. Redness in the sky and not in the clouds in the evening is a sign of good weather. The morning to be foggy in the Summer is also a sign that the day will be fine. If a very black cloud comes on the sky you can be sure of a shower of hail-stone. The westerly winds are the most rainy winds. If the sky is starry and not a puff of wind blowing it is a sing of frost. In the night time if the sky is clear with the exception of a few clouds and very bright it is the sing of a storm. When the birds fly around in flocks feeding it is also a sign of a storm. When it is going to rain the ducks turn their heads sideways and looks up at the sky as if it were to see was the rain coming. The cricket starts chirping and the cat turns his back to the fire and the dog becomes sleepy
