    of good weather. When theres a circle around the moon and very near it it is a sign of a storm and when it is away from it it is a sign of fine weather. When it is bright and hard looking its a sign of good weather but when it is dirty looking it is a sign of bad weather. BIRDS When crows fly up high and sink down suddenly it is a sign of bad weather. When the curlew is whistling it is a sign of bad weather.
