    weather on it. When soote falls down the chimney there will be rain. It is a sign of rain also when the smoke goes through the house instead of going up the chimney. When old men and old women get rheumatism badly they know bad weather is coming. If the sky looks red in the west when the sun is setting, there will be fine weather. When there is rain coming the fish in the rivers and lakes jump for the flies.
