Sharp decline in temperature (up this way at least) can be an early
indicator
of rain....
even when the sky is relatively cloudless.

Jeez, a clock ringing on the hour could be deemed a decent indicator of
imminent rain where you live. Where I live, there are no reliable
indicators of rain. We believe it if and when it finally hits the ground.
Had a pretty good one last Tuesday night. First one in 100 days. And this
is our "monsoon" season.
