False?vi
Bunions, aching backs, corns
and broken bones have
long been the stock in trade of
many amateur weather forecas-
ters. The most amazing fact in
this connection is that I've sel-
dom come across the person
who claims to be an expert pf
this kind. Usually after an af-
ter-dinner talk, I'll have some-
one inform me very confiden-
tially' that his wife can always,
foretell the weather by her pet
corn much more accurately
than my scientific weather fore-
casters can through the use of
their weather charts; or, in the
case of a lady heckler, she'll
tell me of the amazing personal
n IN
True or
forecasting' success which her
old maiden aunt has achieved
through the aches attendant on
her long-standing case of rheu-
matism. Only rarely do I come
upon someone• who is eager to
admit to the possession of the
necessary ailments. Yet there
are many scientists who flatly
refuse to ridicule this aid to
amateur forecasting. There
seems to be .fairly good evi-
dence that scar tissue and cer-
tain joints of • the body may be
affected by the rapid changes
which take place in certain cli-
matic elements preceding a
storm. Pet bunions may there-
fore be fair forecasters, even

though they're not infallible.
It must, furthermore, be kept
in mind that physiological reac-
tions by either human beings or
animals are poor long-range
weather forecasters. They're
useful only in telling something
about what weather is already
at hand. If squirrels are seen
gathering an unusually large
number of nuts in the autumn,
a hard winter is not necessarily
in prospect despite the oft -re-
peated superstition to this ef-
fect. It means simply that the
nut crop has peen good, no
doubt because of favorable wea-
ther during the nut -growing
season.
In like manner, the most re-
cent honored prophet the wool-
ly bear caterpillar, is a fraud
and a deceiver. This woolly
the passage of the shower or the
that the width of the dark band
in the larva's coat foretells the
severity of the coming winter,
but this is pure poppycock. Co-
incidence may make the woolly
bears look good in some years,
but they don't hold up in the
long haul.
The thickness of the fur on
your cat, dog, horse and cow, or
the rabbits, squirrels and deer
you have shot, indicate nothing
whatsoever concerning the rug-
gedness • of the coming yvinter.
Tricky human memory re-
calls only what it wants to re-
member. If the winter has
been particularly severe with
one blizzard heaping its snow
upon the last, we're apt to re-
call, "Yes, I said it'd be a hard
winter when I saw the bees
building their hives high." But
should the winter prove to be
mild, your statement is better
forgotten.
Turning to quite a different
type of adage, the one that fine
weather can be expected during
a rain when "there's enough
blue in the sky to make a pair
of Dutchman's breeches" TB
generally true. The reason for
this runs along the following
lines: the major storm systems
that bring rain or snow cause
many layers of clouds to 'form
near the earth up to six or
eight miles above our planet .
For this reason, if a hole in the
lower cloud appears, only more
clouds can be seen above. If,
however, the storm is moving
away, or if the rain is from lo-.
cal shower activity, a hole in
the lower clouds, from which
the rain is falling, will reveal
the blue sky above, heralding
hte passage of the shower or the
end of the storm.
Many times, too, I've heard
ladies say that rain is brewing
because of the 'increasing curli-
ness of their hair. That's •a
pretty good sign. Curls grow
curlier and more unruly be-
cause as a storm approaches the.
air becomes more and more
humid, affecting the hair like a
damp comb being run through
it. Not only does curly hair be-
come curlier, but doors and
windows are more likely to
stick, table salt is more inclin-
ed to pack, and a handful of
other household annoyances oc-
cur.
From what I've just said,
then, it can be seen that most
weather proverbs or supersti-
tions fall into one of two cate-
gories. First, there are the ad-
ages based on nature -plants
and animals -which should be
viewed with the greatest cau-
tion, if not entirely ignored.
Second, there are the predic-
tions relating to winds, clouds,
increasing moisture content of
the atmosphere or the general
appearance of the air or sky.
Amateur weather -casters may
rely on these signs up to a
point since they've been found
to be, generally reliable for the
section of the world in which
they ,.originated.
