- When the chairs and tables crack it is the sign of rain. When the wind comes from the South it is a sign of warm weather.
When the crickets sing loudly it is the sign of stormy weather
When the Northern lights appear in the sky it is the sign of wet weather
When the moon and sun have golden circles round them it is a sign of a change in the weather.
When the ducks quack it is sign of rain
When there is a dark cloud hanging over the hill top it is a sign of rain.
When the moon is cloudy it is a sign of rain
