Weather conditions can effect many things, especially if you are outdoors or plan to travel. Understanding how weather systems work, and how to foretell eminent weather conditions can be a great asset in preparing for it. We will discuss these things in greater detail, but first, here are some WEATHER PROVERBS:
|
 |
Red sky at night – sailors delight
Red dawn at morning – sailors warning |
 |
Macrel scales and mares tails
make lofty ships carry low sails |
 |
When the ditch and pond offends the nose
look for rain and stormy blows |
 |
when the grass is dry at morning light
look for rain before the night
- and -
when the dew is on the grass
rain will never come to pass |
 |
When there is a ring around the moon
rain or snow is coming soon |

Interesting. I knew about the ‘red skies at night’ saying, but not the others.
RUS
Если чайка села в воду- жди хорошую погоду.
Чайка бродит по песку- моряку сулит тоску. [YaHoo! Babel Fish Text Translation: RUS if the seagull of village into the water wait a good weather. Seagull wanders along the sand to seaman it promises the melancholy]
I have used the “red skies at night” phrase for many years and can’t ever remember it to be wrong – thanks for the others, they’ll come in handy…
