Weather Lore.
Signs of rain:
When the cat sits with her back to the fire.
When the hen picks herself.
When the ashes is blue.
When there is a ring around the moon.
When a dog eats grass.
When the wind is from the West.
When the soot falls.
When the cat scrapes a log.
When the birds fly low.
When there are blue blazes in the fire.
When the sky is black.
When a dog drinks.
When there is a rainbow in the sky.
When the hills look near.
When the smoke goes up straight out of the chimney.
When the cricket sings sharply
When the sun goes down pale
When the clouds are low and going fast.(continues on next page)- Collector
