  1. (continued from previous page)
    If you see the sun coming out late in the morning it is the sign of a good day.
    It is said if you see a blue flame in the fire it is the sign of rain. If you see the kitchen "weeping" it is the sign of wet weather. If you see small flies flying around it is the sign of good weather. If you see the sky red in the morning it is the sign of good weather. If you hear the crows singing early in the morning it is the sign of a fine day.
