Weather forcasting for horse owners. I think this will give ya all a chuckle.

Chuck

The Top 10 ways to use a horse as a weather gauge:



10. You're walking across the pasture and run smack-dab into a Shetland pony - heavy fog in low-lying areas.

9. The horse swishes his tail and knocks you unconscious - icy conditions.

8. A 14-hand horse appears to be about 16 hands tall - snow with possible accumulation up to 8 inches.

7. The ground looks wet but the hoofprints are dry - very light showers.

6. Your horse bites and kicks you - well, that really just means you were an idiot for buying him.

5. The horse looks hungry because his big round bale floated away - possible flooding in some areas.

4. Your sorrel horse has turned roan - snowfall with little or no accumulation.

3. He's slow to leave the hedge row even though you're rattling the feed bucket - excessive heat warning.

2. The horse is hanging onto the fence with his teeth - blustery winds (or you've got a cribber).

1. The front half of the horse is wet and the back half is dry - isolated showers.
