When fish break water and bite eagerly, expect rain. When porpoises sport and play, there will be a storm. When a rain is nigh. The crab his briny home forsakes, And srives on land to a roam. Bubbles over calm beds of water means rain is coming.
Marshes give off an eerie light before a rain.
Wells give murky water before a storm. Look for foam on the river before a rain. Underground miners can smell rain coming. When ditches and ponds Offend the nose, Look for rain And stormy blows. When boiling water more rapidly vanishes, expect rain.
