Weather signs

A thaw on St. Demetrius' Day promised a mild and warm winter, as well as an early spring.

If it snowed and the weather was frosty, then spring, on the contrary, will come late.

The frozen ground and piercing wind indicated that snow would not fall until the New Year.

The crimson dawn promised wind, and knee-deep snowdrifts indicated that the snow would lie until Easter.
