Rain When the dust is flying along the road. When the curlew is whistling. When there is a ring around the moon. When the wind comes south. When the meters fall. If the milky way is to be seen in the sky
Storms. When the seagulls fly inland. When the cat scrapes the door. When the sky is red
Fine Weather:- When the swallows fly high. When the wind blows North it is a sign of fine weather in Summer. When the sun sets red. If the bat flys low. If the rainbow is opposite the sun.(continues on next page)
