  1. (continued from previous page)
    morning rain is sure to follow but in the evening fine weather follows it. At night the moon and the stars foretell the weather. A bright moon with a lot of stars is almost always followed by a fine day; but if the moon is dull and the stars are covered with mist rain is not far off.
