October 29th is the day of remembrance of the martyr Longinus.

People called this day Longinus the Centurion. On October 20, our ancestors took out their winter clothes to warm them in the last sun and air them out in the first real frost.

On the day of Longinus the Centurion, they observed the direction of the wind and judged by it what the weather would bring in the future.

Weather signs

On the day of Longinus the Centurion, it was customary to observe the direction of the wind. A changeable wind indicated that the winter would be just as changeable.

And if the wind blew from the north, rain was not expected in the near future.

If the sky was clear and starry, good weather would set in. A dull sky meant the opposite: in that case, bad weather was expected.
