- (continued from previous page)fly inland it is a sign of rain. When the ducks and geese are to be heard making a lot of noise it is a sign of rain. When the cat lies near the fire it is a sign of rain. When the sky is very red in the evening it is a sign of fine weather and when it is grey it is a sign of rain. When the distant hills are looking near it is a sign of rain. When there is a lot of dust on the road it is a sign of dry weather. When the spiders creep from their cobwebs and when the ants are to be seen creeping on the road it is a sign of rain. When there is a blue light in the fire and when the soot begins to fall it is a sign of rain.
