Weather Proverbs Book

Predict the weather (and have fun!) with weather proverbs and folklore. You are affected by the weather?whether you're a farmer, pilot, sailor, golfer or even if you just drive to work. Your plans?or your life?can be at stake, based on the observations you can make about the ever-changing weather pattems. Over 600 folk sayings in Weather Proverbs will help you predict the weather. Both long-range and short-range proverbs include the scientific explanations for our ancestors' sayings. Understand why your mood is affected by atmospheric pressure -- and also why: "When your jointsall start to ache,Rainy weatheris at stake." Interpret the highs, lows and fronts on your local TV weatherman's maps as you learn about meteorology. Learn to avoid grouchy people when you look out the window and find: "Birds sittingon a telephoneline,Expect rain." Lowering barometric pressure is going to make them even grouchier. Discover how to protect your property and yourself from lightning. Know why this dramatic exhibition of raw energy occurs. Long-term proverbs are less accurate, but truth can be found in some of this old lore too: "Wet May, dry July, as high as the weeds grow,So will be the bank of snow." George Freier's professional credentials give a fascinating twist to his long-term study of weather folklore. Dr. Freier encourages us all to be aware what's happening with the weather. "The minds of mendo in the weathershare, Dark or sereneas it's foul or fair."Read More
