Should the sun, f later in the ^ay, shine thropgh a grey . watei*y-haz**, it will probably be a rainy night. The fmh99t is very unreliable.

A tinted halo round the moon especially if some distance from it, is a sure indication of down-fal At hand. Rainbows are unreliable, except they occur in the morning, when rain may be evpected. Hun-dogs, and fragments of prismatic colors during the :day, show continued unsettled weather. A dazzling inetalic lustre on foliage, during a cloudlesss day in summer precedes a change. .

Hed-tinged clouds,* high up, at evening, are followed by wind, occasionally by rain. Mists at evening over low lying irmiind. or noar a river, nrecede fine ^ ------ warm days.

No dew in jthe looming is mostly followed by rain ; .and a heavy dew in the evening bj> fine dfiy. Kain follows two or three consecutive hoar frosts. A. shower of hail in the d:?y-tinie is usually fallowed by frost at night. If. after rain, drops of water haiig on the branches and twigs, and to window frames, the rain will return; but if they fall and the jK-ood-work dries, fine weather is at fyand.
