In Vermont

Clear moon, frost real soon.
Red sky at night, sailors delight.
Clouds like towers, frequent showers.
Ring around the moon, rain real soon.
Higher the clouds, the finer the weather.
Rainbow in the morning gives fair warning.
Dew before midnight, next day will be bright.
Rain foretold, long last. Short notice, soon pass.
If it rains before seven, it will clear before eleven.
Evening red and morning gray, sure signs of a fine day.
Mackerel sky, mackerel sky, never long wet, never long dry.
If three nights dewless there be, ‘twill rain, you’re sure to see.
Evening gray and morning red, put on a hat or wet your head.
