BARAK'S OTHER WEATHER MEGARULE
Expect fair weather for at least 12 more hours if you see a red sky at night, bees swarming, a gray morning sky, very high clouds, a late-afternoon rainbow, steadily rising camp smoke, morning mist rising from mountain ravines, a sky full of stars, a sea that appears darker than the sky at dawn, or a large number of bats flying in the early evening.

BARAK'S WEATHER MEGARULE
Plan for stormy weather if there is a red sun at morn, no dew or frost at night, a rainbow in the morning, a ring around the moon, or if insects are bothersome, swallows fly low, campfire smoke heads straight up and then beats downward, breezes expose the underside of leaves, distant sounds carry farther, ax heads tighten up, or frogs croak loudly.
