    Signs Of The Weather.
    When a cat runs fast it is a sign of rain, when the mountains can be seen clearly and the train heard loudly foul weather is expected.
    When the air is foggy it is a sign of hot weather. When the smoke from a chimney goes up straight fine weather is expected.

    I heard this from - Mrs. Kearon, "Singleton," Arklow.
