    If there is a halo around the moon it is the sign of bad weather. If the moon isn't sitting straight it is the sign of bad weather.
    If there are a lot of stars in the sky it is the sign of bad weather. If the fog is even on the Galtees it is the sign of good weather. If the fog is scattered on the Galtees it is the sign of bad weather. A rainbow in the morning is the sign of bad weather.
