Weather signs
Precipitation on St. John's Day allowed us to judge the upcoming weather. It was not for nothing that the saint was called Snowy: it was believed that if snow fell on November 25, it would not melt and would remain until the beginning of spring.
If dark and low clouds were observed on this day, they expected frosts to come soon. And if they were moving against the wind, it would soon snow.
