Weather change occurs from the top of the atmosphere down, and wind change portends weather change. When you see several layers of clouds in the sky moving in different directions, pay attention. You can see the wind change coming in those clouds. If the wind shifts in a counterclockwise direction in the Northern Hemisphere, bad weather is coming. If you look at the shore and see the leaves on the trees, which tend to grow according to prevailing winds, turning their backs in a gust, the weather is liable to deteriorate. Other signs include the buildup of towering, darkening cumulus clouds, or clouds moving from the east or northeast, or a halo around the moon. Look into the distance. Do faraway objects seem to stand above the horizon? Can you suddenly hear distant sounds very clearly? These signs could mean rain, just as wind from the south with clouds moving from the west, a yellow sunset, or clouds with sharp, clearly define edges are often indicators of high winds in the offing. But look at the bright side. When smoke and cloud bases rise the southerly wind shifts to the west, nature is forecasting clearing weather. And a red sky to the east and clear to the west at sunset means it is likely to stay that way. BASS FISHING ORLANDO FLORIDA,
