Long before the Weather Channel... animal lovers, farmers, gardeners, ranchers, explorers & sailors knew animals could predict the weather. Even modern apartment dwellers can enjoy advance notice of pending weather conditions by observing the behavior of pets and insects. Packed into this handy camper's guide is a body of practical knowledge nearly lost to the back stacks at the Library of Congress. Late in the 19th Century the War Department conducted an exhaustive survey of folk weather proverbs and subjected them to empirical testing. Their report (from which this handy guide is drawn) contained all those proverbs they felt deserved the name of predictor. You or someone near to you will treasure this usefull guide. Now you can enjoy American folk weather wisdom presented in an entertaining, easy to navigate format. USEFUL LIFE SAVING TIP ... Knowing one or two reliable weather predictors can be a useful curiosity. However, having over one hundred & fifty at your fingertips helps confirm pending weather conditions through multiple observations. To the camper spending any time exposed to the elements this kind of information could be a life saver. Dale Michels, editor/designer bydale@alltel.net |
