  1. the sign of snow.
    Mary Ellen Quinn

    When the sky is white that is the sign of snow. When there is a circle around the moon that is a sign of bad weather.
    When there is no smoke out of the train that is the sign for good weather.
    When the sky is clear it is a sign of good weather. When there is a rainbow in the sky it is a sign of rain.
    When the Cora Donn is lapping widley it is a sign of bad weather.
