With springtime, I always seem to hear people talking more about the weather. Perhaps it would be a good time for my page Weather 'Wisdom' to be featured as a talking point?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A180758
It's an effort to find old wive's tales and true facts about the weather and combine them into one useful Guide entry. I had some limited success, but the project sort of stagnated and I didn't keep after it.
In fact, just writing this little note to you I thought of one we missed, 'April showers bring May flowers.'
Anyway, thanks in advance for giving it a look. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for the rose, Jimi!
This is a great entry - folk wisdom at its finest! I'm not too sure how much more could be added to it, though, it's already a valuable resource. Is it in Peer Review yet?
If I don't catch up with you today, you probably won't hear from me for a little while - I'm on holiday next week

No Peer Review. I would like to see it used as a starting point for 'Contributing to the Guide: Talking Point - Weather Wisdom'
I'm pretty sure there are other proverbs, folk tales and old wives tales about the weather that I'm missing. I just don't know what they might be. Like forgetting April Showers Bring May Flowers until yesterday.
I'd like to see the community get behind it a bit and really fill it out.
Have a great holiday? Going someplace sunny?
