   When the wind is from the West it is the sigh of that it is going to be wet and stormery. If Candlemass day be fair and clear we are going to have two winters the one year. If candlemass day be windy and wet, there are two summers to come yet. If March comes in like a lion you will have very wet and stormery weather If it will go out like a lamb you will have sultry hot weather.
