  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi All</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">In the old days before blizzards of weather forecasts</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">the appearance of the size of the land in the distance</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">was considered a sure weather indicator.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">&#34;The land is looming up - must be a storm coming!&#34; my Grandfather</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">would say.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">If from home the mountains or hills if you wish of Pictou</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">and Antigonish Counties could be easily seen most days</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">If they appeared low - fine weather - if 2 or 3 times normal height</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">a storm was brewing. Today as I drove along Western Shore the islands</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">of Tancock and Ironbound along with the smaller ones all appeared</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">2 to 3 times their usual size. Probably a storm on the way.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Is that a common oldtime weather indicator in other places?</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Enjoy the storm</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Paul</span>

  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">&#160;</span>
