December 13 marks the day of remembrance of the Apostle Andrew the First-Called, brother of the Apostle Peter.

On this day, people listened to the water not only in wells, but also in rivers and lakes.

The sound of the water was used to determine what kind of weather would be typical for the remaining months of winter.

Weather signs

One of the main weather signs on St. Andrew the First-Called is connected with water. If the rivers, lakes and wells were calm, the rest of the winter will not surprise with strong snowstorms and frosts.

If, on the contrary, the water made noise and hummed, they expected strong snowstorms, frosts and, in general, misfortunes in the coming year.

It was also believed that if snow fell on St. Andrew the First-Called, it would stay there for another 110 days.
