1. 长虫过道，下雨之兆，蛤蟆哇哇叫，大雨就要到。

1. A long worm crossing the path, a sign of rain. The toads are croaking loudly, a heavy rain is about to arrive.

2. 天上鲤鱼斑，明日晒谷不同翻。?>

2. The sky displays a carp pattern, tomorrow's grain threshing will be unlike the past. ?>

3. 日出红云升，劝君莫远行；日落红云升，来日是晴天。

3. As the sun rises, red clouds ascend, I advise you not to travel far; as the sun sets, red clouds ascend, the next day will be a sunny day.

4. 泥鳅跳，大雨到。

4. Eel jumps, heavy rain is coming.

5. 温带区域和它的北面--就是约在30°N的地方--的雨水，主要是由于气旋带来的。气旋的行动，老是自西向东的，在它的前部，盛行着东北风、东风或东南风。故气旋将到的时候，风向必定偏东的。所以东风可以看做气旋将来的预兆。因为气旋是一种风暴，是温带区域下雨的主要因子，所以我们看到吹东风，使知是雨天的先兆。

5. The rain in the temperate zone and its northern region, which is approximately at 30°N, is mainly brought by cyclones. The movement of cyclones is always from west to east, and in their front, the prevailing winds are northeast, east, or southeast. Therefore, when a cyclone is approaching, the wind direction must be偏向东方. So, the east wind can be seen as a forewarning of the approaching cyclone. Since cyclones are a storm and a major factor for rain in the temperate zone, we can infer that when there is an east wind, it is a sign of an impending rainy day.

6. 老夫活到八十八，未见阵头东南发。(江苏苏州)

6. The old man has lived to be eighty-eight, but has never seen the vanguard from the southeast. (Suzhou, Jiangsu)

7. 据统计的结果看来，在单纯的东北风里，降雨机会，冬天最多也不过26%，夏天只有11%，也就是说不下雨的机会有74%和89%。如果在气旋前部的东北风里，也就是有锋面活动着的东北风地带，下雨的机会就超过晴天。所以'东北风，雨太公'这个谚语，还不一定完全可靠。

7. According to the statistical results, in a pure north-east wind, the chance of rain is at most 26% in winter and only 11% in summer, which means there is a 74% to 89% chance of no rain. If it's in the north-east wind at the front of a cyclone, which is the area with north-east winds where there is frontal activity, the chance of rain is greater than that of a sunny day. Therefore, the saying "north-east wind, the rain is too much" is not necessarily entirely reliable.

8. 这几条都说早上有雨主晴，晚上有雨才是久雨之兆。

8. These say that rain in the morning signifies fair weather, while rain at night is a sign of a prolonged rainy period.

9. 伏天正值阳历七八月之交，是全年最热的期间。这个时期，如果气层是稳定的，热力对流就不能发生，即使有对流发生，也不可能发展到在天空造成雷雨云而打雷雨的程度。这种局面一旦造成，可维持很久，使天气久热而不下雨。但若大气层既潮湿，又不稳定，热力对流就极易发生。今天发生雷雨，明天还是发生。因为同一不稳定气团之下，它的组织、构造是可以维持好多天不变的。所以在这种大热天气，不下雨也罢了，下过一次，就很可能常常下。

9. The Dog Days, occurring at the intersection of July and August in the Gregorian calendar, are the hottest period of the year. During this time, if the atmospheric layers are stable, thermal convection cannot occur. Even if convection does take place, it is not possible to develop it to the extent that it creates thunderclouds in the sky and causes thunder and rain. Once such a situation is created, it can last for a long time, leading to hot weather without rain. However, if the atmospheric layer is both humid and unstable, thermal convection can easily occur. Thunderstorms can occur today and the next day as well. This is because under the same unstable air mass, its organization and structure can remain unchanged for many days. Therefore, in such extremely hot weather, it is fine if there is no rain; but if it rains once, it is very likely to rain frequently.

10. 好天狂风不过日，雨天狂风时间长。

10. A fine day's fierce wind does not last long, while a rainy day's fierce wind lingers longer.

11. 久雨闻鸟鸣，不久即转晴。

11. After a long period of rain, the sound of birds chirping signals that the weather will soon clear up.

12. 一日东风三日雨；三日东风一场空。(广西贵县)

12. A day of east wind, three days of rain; three days of east wind, all for naught. (Guixi County, Guangxi)

13. 海雀向上飞，有风不等黑。

13. Seagulls fly upwards, not waiting for darkness when there's wind.

14. 天乌地黑无风发，大水落得阔。

15. 燕子钻天，下满了湾。

15. Swallows dive into the sky, filling all the bays below.

16. 乌云接日高，有雨在明朝；乌云接日低，有雨在夜里。

16. Dark clouds meet the sun high, rain will come in the morning; dark clouds meet the sun low, rain will come at night.

17. 五月南风遭大水，六月南风海也枯。(浙江、广东)

17. In May, the south wind brings great floods; in June, the south wind dries up the sea. (Zhejiang, Guangdong)

18. 在晴好的天气，早上只会有雾，不会下雨的。现在下雨了，表示天气本来不好，可能有远地风暴逼近。一次风暴的经过，常要一天或一天以上的时间，不是短时内可以完的。现在，早上就开始下雨，那末未来一天之内，要“雨伞勿离手”了。在黄昏时分，高空气流一般的有下沉运动，天空原有的云，很易因此消散(因为下沉气流是最热燥的气流)。在这时候，如果有碎块云里下来的雨，是下不长的。但是，如果这种雨是一种风暴雨(就是从西方移动过来的有系统的云雨)，那末“雨打黄昏戍”也就未必“明朝燥悉悉”了。

18. On a clear day, there will only be mist in the morning and no rain. The rain now indicates that the weather was originally bad, and there may be an approaching storm from afar. The passage of a storm often takes a day or more, not something that can be finished in a short time. Now, it has started to rain in the morning, so we should be prepared to "hold our umbrellas" throughout the coming day. In the evening, the high-altitude air currents generally have a sinking motion, and the clouds originally in the sky are easily dispersed because of this (since sinking air currents are the hottest and driest). At this time, if it rains from broken clouds, it won't last long. However, if this kind of rain is a violent storm rain (that is, a systematic cloud and rain moving from the west), then "rain beating on the evening guard" may not necessarily mean "tomorrow will be dry and crispy" either.

19. 淋了伏头，下到伏尾。(河北、山西宁武、河南嵩县)

19. It's drizzling at the head and raining at the tail. (Hebei, Ningwu, Shanxi; Song County, Henan)

20. 雪是从高空落下来的，凝雪的时候，地面气温并不一定很冷。但是雪要融解成水，就须吸收大量的热力(一克的雪，融解成水所吸收的热量，等于把一克水的温度，从摄氏零度升到80度时所需要的热量)。这热量就从地面层空气中吸去，所以不等到雪融完，气温是不可能回升的。

20. Snow falls from the high sky, and when it condenses, the ground temperature is not necessarily very cold. However, for the snow to melt into water, it needs to absorb a large amount of heat (the heat absorbed by one gram of snow when it melts into water is equal to the heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water from 0 degrees Celsius to 80 degrees Celsius). This heat is drawn from the air layer at the ground, so the temperature cannot rise until all the snow has melted.

21. 天东雨，隔堵墙；这边落雨，那边出太阳。(山西太原、安微全椒)

21. Rain in the east, separated by a wall; while it rains here, the sun shines over there. (Taiyuan, Shanxi Province; Quanjiao, Anhui Province)

22. 蚂蚁搬家有雨。

22. If ants are moving their home, it will rain.

23. 老牛抬头朝天嗅，雨临头；马嘴朝天，大雨在前。

23. The old cow raises its head to sniff the sky; rain is about to fall; the horse's mouth is facing the sky, indicating a heavy rain is coming ahead.

24. 天早云下山，饭后天大晴。

24. The clouds descend from the sky early in the morning, and after the meal, the sky is clear and bright.

25. 清早起海云，风雨霎时临。

28. 蜜蜂晚出早归巢，天气有变雨将到。

28. Bees go out late at night and return early to the hive; a change in the weather indicates rain is approaching.

29. 电光西南，明日炎炎。(浙江义乌、江苏常熟、元锡)

29. The electric light shines in the southwest, and tomorrow will be scorching hot. (Yiwu, Zhejiang; Changshu, Jiangsu; Yuxi)

30. 春季天气还冷，在晴天无云的时候，晚上更冷。大气冷而重的，沉着在地面，暖而轻的，浮在上空，造成气温向上逆增的现象。于是地面水蒸汽最先凝结成雾，再向上发展；但是高空温度比较暖些，水蒸汽也比较少，所以雾的发展，只限于地面的薄层。它的高度不过几丈，最低的只不过人体那般高。到了天晓以后，太阳出来，因为天空本来无云，地面热了，雾气上升就消散了，天空依然是强盛的日光。这就是“春雾日头”的解释。但是，如果这上升的雾气，给高空或有的温暖气层遏止着不得上升，那末，这雾幕就成层云的状态陈列在天空，天气也就阴了。所以“春雾日头”并非必然。

30. In spring, the weather is still cold, and it gets even colder at night when the sky is clear and cloudless. The cold and heavy atmosphere settles on the ground, while the warm and light atmosphere rises to the upper air, causing a phenomenon of upward inversion in temperature. As a result, the ground water vapor first condenses into mist, and then it develops upwards; however, the temperature in the upper air is relatively warmer and there is less water vapor, so the development of the mist is limited to a thin layer on the ground. Its height is no more than a few meters, the lowest being only as tall as a person. After dawn, when the sun rises, as the sky was originally cloudless, the ground heats up, and the mist rises and dissipates, leaving the sky filled with strong sunlight. This is the explanation for the saying "Spring mist, sunny day." However, if the rising mist is blocked by the upper air or a warm air layer from ascending, then this mist screen will appear as stratocumulus clouds in the sky, and the weather will turn cloudy. Therefore, "Spring mist, sunny day" is not necessarily the case.

31. 鱼鳅静，天气晴。

31. The loach is still, and the weather is clear.

32. 蜻蜓飞得低，出门带 笠。

32. The dragonfly flies low, bring an umbrella when you go out.

33. 这几句所讲的闪电，是发生在冷锋上的，称为冷锋雷雨，或飑线雷雨。冷锋位于北来冷气团的前锋，从北向南行动。看到雷电发生在北方，可见冷气团将跟着冷锋，自北向南而来，所以"北闪有雨来"。如果看到电闪发作在南方，它必定再向南去，不再北来。这时在本地方盛行着的是干燥而清洁的北方气团，刚到时比较冷些，但是因为天青无云，阳光强烈，温度是会很快升高的，所以说“南闪火门开”。

33. These sentences describe lightning that occurs on the cold front, known as cold front thunderstorms or squall line thunderstorms. The cold front is located at the leading edge of the advancing cold air mass from north to south. Seeing lightning in the north indicates that the cold air mass will follow the cold front, coming from north to south, hence the saying "North lightning brings rain." If lightning is seen to flash in the south, it will definitely move further south and not come back north. At this time, the prevailing air mass in this area is a dry and clean northern air mass, which is cooler when it first arrives. However, due to the clear sky without clouds and strong sunshine, the temperature will rise quickly, so it is said that "South lightning opens the door to heat."

34. 青蛙叫，大雨到。

34. The frog croaks, a heavy rain is coming.

35. 蟑螂乱飞，有阵雨 蟑螂对气候变化的敏感性很强，如果夜间看到蟑螂飞来飞去，说明天气发生变化，将有降雨。

35. Cockroaches flying around, there will be a shower. Cockroaches are highly sensitive to climate change, and if you see them flying around at night, it indicates that a change in the weather is occurring, which will be followed by rainfall.

36. 这是气旋里面的云系，越到低压中心，也就越近雨区。所以云层越低的现象表示天快下雨，地上不干了。

36. This is the cloud system within the cyclone, and the closer it is to the low-pressure center, the closer it is to the rain area. Therefore, the phenomenon of lower cloud layers indicates that it is about to rain, and the ground will no longer be dry.

37. 雾起不收，细雨不休；雾起即收，旭日可求。(浙江义乌、江苏元锡)

37. When fog rises, it does not subside; fine rain continues ceaselessly. When fog rises and then dissipates, the morning sun can be sought. (Yiwu, Zhejiang; Yuxi, Jiangsu)

38. 山顶的罩，就是掩山的低云。这是气旋中心雨区的景象，所以天要下雨了。河面的罩，这就是辐射低雾，它是晴天的产物，因天晴无云，地面散热的结果而出现的，所以说，“河罩晴”。

38. The covering over the summit is the low clouds that obscure the mountain. This is the scene of the rain area in the center of a cyclone, so it is going to rain. The covering over the river is the radiation low fog, which is a product of clear weather. Since the sky is clear and cloudless, and due to the ground's heat radiation, this fog appears. Therefore, it is said, "River covering on a sunny day."

39. 燕子低飞狗吃草，这场大雨小不了。

39. Swallows flying low and dogs eating grass, this heavy rain won't be light.

40. 雾的种类很多，各种雾的成因也不相同。但是，可以称做大雾且可连续发生三天之多的，大概是辐射低雾，海性雾，或者是热带气流雾。

40. There are many types of fog, and the causes of each type of fog are also different. However, the types that can be called heavy fog and may occur continuously for three days or more are probably radiation fog, marine fog, or tropical airflow fog.

41. 晚间天罩云，早上著鞋行；早上地罩雾，尽管洗衣裤。(湖南)

41. At night, the sky is veiled with clouds; in the morning, it's time to put on shoes and go out. If the ground is covered with fog in the morning, just go ahead and wash your pants. (Hunan)

42. 这是流行在东南沿海各省的夏季天气谚语。东南风是从海洋来的，为什么又会干燥起来呢？我们知道，雨水的下降，一方面固然要有凝雨的物质--水蒸汽；同时，还要有使这些水蒸汽变成云雨的条件。这个条件，在东南平原地区的夏季，就要靠热力的对流作用或两支不同方向来的气流之间的锋面活动。

42. This is a summer weather proverb that is popular in the southeastern coastal provinces. The southeast wind comes from the sea, but why does it become dry again? We know that for rain to fall, on the one hand, there must be condensation materials -- water vapor; at the same time, there also need to be conditions for these water vapor to form clouds and rain. This condition, during the summer in the southeastern plain areas, relies on the convective action of heat or the frontal activity between two air currents coming from different directions.

43. 东霍霍，西霍霍，明天转来干卜卜。(福建福州)

43. East Hohoh, west Hohoh, turn to Gàn Bǔbǔ tomorrow. (Fuzhou, Fujian)

44. “天皓洁”指天气睛好；“冲”指山冲，“十冲干九冲”意思是十个山冲就干掉九个，旱情十分严重。

44. "天皓洁" refers to fine weather; "冲" means a mountain valley; "十冲干九冲" means that out of ten mountain valleys, nine would dry up, indicating an extremely severe drought situation.

45. 风是流动着的大气，大气就是我们俗称的空气。风有从北方来的，有从南方来的，也有从别的方向来的。因为各方面的地理属性不一致，所以不同来历的风有它多样的特性。有冷风，也有热风；有干风，也有湿风。沙漠吹来的风，挟带着沙尘；海面来的风，就含有更多的水汽。因此，我们在不同的风里面，就有不同的感觉，可以看到不同的天空景象。更进一步的，如果两种不同的风碰头，就极易发生冲突，这时就可以看到天气突变的现象。

45. Wind is the flowing atmosphere, and the atmosphere is what we commonly call air. There are winds coming from the north, from the south, and from other directions. Because the geographical attributes of different directions are inconsistent, winds of different origins have diverse characteristics. There are cold winds, hot winds; dry winds, and moist winds. The wind blowing from the desert carries sand and dust; the wind coming from the sea contains more water vapor. Therefore, we have different feelings in different winds, and we can see different sky landscapes. Furthermore, if two different winds meet, it is easy for a conflict to occur, at which point we can see sudden changes in the weather.

46. 这两句谚语的意思是：春天吹东风，是坏天气的前兆。这是因为，一方面春天地面强有力地增暖。另一方面暖空气逐渐活跃，大陆上气压逐渐降低，反气旋东移入海。在反气旋的尾部就会出现东风。这些东风流到比较暖的陆地上，就造成了下暖上冷的现象。这时空气层是不稳定的，易发生上升对流运动，所以极有可能产生降水。

46. The meanings of these two proverbs are: When the east wind blows in spring, it is a sign of bad weather. This is because, on one hand, the ground warms up strongly in spring. On the other hand, the warm air gradually becomes active, the atmospheric pressure over the continent gradually decreases, and the anticyclone moves eastward into the sea. The east wind will appear at the tail end of the anticyclone. When these east winds flow to the relatively warm land, they create a phenomenon where it is warm below and cold above. At this time, the air layer is unstable and prone to upward convectional movements, so it is highly possible that precipitation will occur.

47. 秋冬时节，常有热带气流吹到北方来。因为这时候地面冷，所以贴近地面的空气也变冷而有雾出现。这叫做热带气流雾。热带气流盛行了三四天，本地必定暖湿非常，气压也变低了，接着天气就发生变化了。

47. During the autumn and winter seasons, there are often tropical air currents blowing from the south to the north. Since the ground is cold at this time, the air close to the ground also becomes cold and fog appears. This is called tropical air current fog. When the tropical air current prevails for three or four days, the local area will become very warm and humid, and the atmospheric pressure will drop, after which the weather will change.

48. 雨小，只能洒尘，天气太干，旱灾发生，所以要饿死人。

48. The rain is light, only enough to sprinkle dust; the weather is too dry, a drought has occurred, so people will starve to death.

49. 南风怕水溺，北风怕日辣。

49. The south wind fears water submersion, and the north wind fears the sun's scorching.

50. 早上地面掩了一层雾，天气保证是好的，所以尽管洗衣裤好了。雾是晴天的产物，有雾天气，必定是晴天。

50. In the morning, the ground was covered with a layer of fog, but the weather was guaranteed to be good, so it was okay to do the laundry pants. Fog is a product of clear weather, and on foggy days, it must be a sunny day.

51. 田螺浮水面，风雨在眼前。

51. Clams float on the water surface, with storms looming in sight.

52. 夏季雷雨一般有两种类型：一种是锋面雷雨，一种是局地热雷雨。前者是由于锋面上升气流引起的，呈带状分布，范围广，生命久；后者是由于局地性强热对流引起的，范围小，生命短。“东闪西闪”就是第二种雷雨体现的

52. There are generally two types of summer thunderstorms: one is frontal thunderstorm and the other is local thermal thunderstorm. The former is caused by the ascending air flow at the front, which is distributed in a strip-like pattern, has a wide range, and a long lifespan; the latter is caused by strong local thermal convection, which has a small range and a short lifespan. "East flash, west flash" refers to the manifestation of the second type of thunderstorm.

53. 午饭时天气最热，对流最盛，降雨总是很多的，但非必然。

53. The midday weather is the hottest, with the most intense convection, and rainfall is always abundant, but it is not necessarily so.

54. 晴天太阳落山之后，地面空气就沉着不动，早晨的空气，更是沉寂。这时候，只有在地面凝成低雾，不可能有云。所以“天顶穿”成了天气晴好的保证。凡是晴明的天气，太阳光强烈，地面气流可以上升，形成云彩；但是地平的四方，是悬空的、干净的。这种云产生在本地天顶，或可下对流性雷雨，但不久就要消灭的，所以四脚悬空，也是未来天气好的征兆。要是有风暴从远方前来，那末地平线上，必定有浓云密蔽着，决不可能四方空空的。

54. After the sun sets on a clear day, the air on the ground becomes still, and the air in the morning is even quieter. At this time, low fog can only form on the ground, not clouds. Therefore, the "sky through" has become a guarantee of good weather. On any clear weather, the sunlight is strong, the ground air can rise, forming clouds; but the horizon in all four directions is suspended and clean. This kind of cloud forms at the local zenith, or it may bring a downpour of convective thunderstorms, but it will soon dissipate, so the fact that it is hanging in the air is also a sign of good weather in the future. If a storm is approaching from afar, then on the horizon, there must be thick clouds covering it, it is absolutely impossible for all four directions to be empty.

55. 雾后来云，下雨；云后来雾，天晴。雾多见于反气旋中，天气晴明；密蔽天空的云多见于气旋之中，天气恶劣。雾之后，来了一大片云，可能反气旋已过去，气旋来临；也可能高空暖湿得很，雾密集不散而出现云，这是下雨前的景象。反之，如果云消而雾起，足见气旋已去，晴明的反气旋天气已经来临，天就好了。

55. After the fog, clouds come and it rains; after the clouds, fog appears and the weather clears up. Fog is more common in anticyclones, where the weather is clear and bright; dense clouds that cover the sky are more common in cyclones, where the weather is severe. After the fog, a large cloud appears, which may indicate that the anticyclone has passed and a cyclone is approaching; or it may be that the upper atmosphere is very warm and moist, causing the fog to become dense and persistent, leading to the formation of clouds, which is a sign of rain approaching. Conversely, if the clouds dissipate and the fog rises, it is a sign that the cyclone has moved away, and the clear and bright weather of the anticyclone has arrived, and the weather will improve.

56. 云是悬浮在高空中的密集的水滴或冰滴。从云里可以降雨或雪。对天气变化有经验的人都知道：天上挂什么云，就有什么天气，所以说，云是天气的相貌，天空云的形状可以表现短时间内天气变化的动态。云是用肉眼可以直接看到的现象，所以关于它的谚语最多，也比较符合科学原理。

56. Clouds are dense drops of water or ice suspended in the high sky. Rain or snow can fall from clouds. Those who are experienced in weather changes know that: the type of clouds in the sky determines the weather, which is why clouds are considered as the face of the weather. The shape of the clouds in the sky can reflect the dynamics of short-term weather changes. Clouds are phenomena that can be seen with the naked eye, hence there are many proverbs about them and they are also in line with scientific principles.

57. 朝怕南云涨，晚怕北云堆。

57. In the morning, fear the rise of southern clouds; in the evening, fear the accumulation of northern clouds.

58. 乌云拦东，不下雨也有风。乱云天顶绞，风雨来不小。

58. Clouds block the east, rain may not fall, but there will be wind. Chaotic clouds twist at the top, bringing a significant amount of wind and rain.

59. 蚂蚁垒窝要下雨。

59. Ants building nests means it's going to rain.
