  1. (continued from previous page)
    When you see sheep coming down from the mountain its a sign that we are going to have a storm.
    When you see the chimney puffing its a sign of rain.
    When you see red in the west its the sign of frost.
    When you see a ring around the moon its the sign of rain.
    When you see the wild geese crying its the sign of rain.
