    The Weather
    People living near the village of Mornington have a good idea of the kind of weather there is to be. If it starts raining just when the tide is coming in, it is a sign that the rain will cease until the tide goes out again.
    When the wild - geese fly out over the Sea it is a sign that there is to be very bad weather. When they fly in from the Sea it is a sign that there is to be a very bad storm.
