- When the rain is about to fall we see very black clouds in the sky.
If the suns rays are white it is going to be bad weather. If the rain-bow is in the sky there is going to be plenty of rain.
If the birds are flying high it is a sign that it is going to be fine. If they are flying low it is a sign of rain. If the sky is grey it is going to rain.
If insects or midges are flying low in the evening it is a sign it is going to be wet. If the aurora borealis is in the sky it will be stormy.
