How to Predict the Weather Without a Forecast

Here's an interesting article on wikiHow: How to Predict the Weather Without a Forecast. Some interesting tidbits:

"Plants release their waste in a low pressure atmosphere, generating a smell like compost and indicating an upcoming rain."

"Clouds going in different directions (e.g. one layer going west, another layer going north) - bad weather coming, probably hail"

"If birds are flying high in the sky, there will probably be fair weather. (Falling air pressure caused by an imminent storm causes discomfort in birds' ears, so they fly low to alleviate it.)"
