  1. (continued from previous page)
    If a fog is seen at night it is a sign of frost in the morning.
    When the midgets fly low it is a sign of rain.
    When the clouds are bright in the sky it is a sign of good weather the next day
    When the wild ducks are bawling it is a sign of rain.
    When the peacocks cry it is the sign of rain.
    When the cricket chirps plainly it is a sign of rain.
