    When the seagulls fly inland it is the sign of stormy weather When the moon is red it is the sign of wind. When there is lighting without thunder (it) we are going to have fine weather. Frogs croak loudly before heavy rain. When there is a rosy sky it's the sign of bad weather. If there is snow on Mt Leinster it is the sign of bad weather
