"Eric The Red" was a Viking explorer. He discovered Iceland or Greenland. I forget which. Maybe he found both. His son reached America centuries before Columbus.

yeah, i know rain too.I can forecast the weather if it will be rain or not by observeing the cloud move direction.it sounds i am as great as Eric the red, doesn't it? If you want to get the skill as me, i give you 4 key points:
if the sky get black and dusk, you need pay attentiong to it:
1.the cloud towards the North, it will be sunny soon.
2.the cloud towards the East, it will be non-rain.
3.the cloud towards the South, it will be heavy rain.
4.the cloud towards the west, it will be slight rain.
Ps: maybe,there is some different between china and usa.

Yes, Eric. I do have a copy of the Farmers' Almanac. I buy one every year. No, I am not a farmer. To the contrary, I manage to kill every plant I come across. I buy it for the predictions, homespun wisdom and silly advertisements. All in all, not a bad way to waste a few bucks.

Pleae try not to kill all the plants you come across. Some have medicinal and psycological value.

Eric, if you want an idea of what is in the "Farmer's Almanac" you can go to their website.

Oooh wow ... checked the long range weather and there's a lunar eclipse slated for Oct 27th!!
