h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm after a spot of help. I need to gather a list of weather catch phrases...
You know the type -
It's raining cats and dogs
Fog as thick as peas soup
It never rains unless it pours
A butterfly flaps it's wings and the weather changes in China.
Anything would be a help.
Thanks

"If you can see [insert name of local landmark] it's going to rain. If you can't see it, it already is."

The Edited Entry on International Weather Wisdom at A641305 has a load of proverbs and sayings.

Azara

Thank you

thanks Azara, but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for.
So if anyone else has any suggestions????

My grandad always used to say:

"It'll either rain or get dark before morning".

Of course there's always "Red sky at night - Shepherds delight, Red sky in the morning - Shepherds warning".

and yes, I have just noticed that's included in the above guide entry!
Anyway, I forgot to post the I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue version (I think it was Willie Rushton):

"Red sky in the evening, Sheperd's heeding.
Red sky in Ealing, Sheperd's bush on fire!"

or even
" Red sky at night
Barn's Alight"

Who has a barn these days?
I like these.
More please...

If you can see a patch of blue sky large enough to make a pair of sailor's trousers it will be fine in the next hour.

Skydivers use the term "sucker hole" for a patch of blue sky that they might be able to jump full altitude from. It's a sucker hole because the sight often inspires a hopeless optimist to say: "Look - it's clearing up."

Of course, in Scunthorpe, the expression is:

"Red sky at night, shepherd's delight
Red sky in the morning, they're slag-tipping again"
