    It is a good sign of the weather to see a rainbow in the night and it is a bad sign to see it in the morning.
    It is a sign of rain to see a cat scratch wood.
    It is a sign of hard weather to see a blue blaze in the fire.
    When you see the smoke going up straight out of the chimney it is the sign of fine weather.
