Folklore Guide to the Weather David Bowen

"Folklore Guide to the Weather" contains a series of folklore saying pertaining to the weather and how to predict and read it. Although there are many such sayings, the ones within this volume are those that contemporarily couldn't be explained by science, but which the author believes are reliable "at least seven times out of ten". Contents include: "Solar Halo", "Rainbows", "Rain", "Hail", "Thunder and Lightening", "Frost", "Snow", "Sound", "Temperature", "Birds", "Animals (Quadrupeds)", "Insects", "Fish, Molluscs and Reptiles", "Plants and Trees", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction.
