- "A rainbow in the morning is the shepherd warning and a rainbow at night is the shepherds delight". When the cat turns his back to the fire it is a sign of frost. When the wind blows from the east it is a sign of snow. When the swallows fly very low for the midges it is a great sign of rain when the seagulls fly up the river it is a sign of rain.
