- (continued from previous page)Twinkling or falling stars and noisy rivers foretell frost.A fog going up Nephin is the sign of good weather. A fog coming down is the very opposite.We generally have rain when the soot falls down the chimney; when the walls or floors are damp and when raking the fire at night if sulphurous lights are seen in the ashes.If black-birds, thrushes, robins or other small little birds come round the door we know that snow is coming.
