At Lahinch Golf Club in Ireland, roaming goats forecast the weather. If they stay near the clubhouse, the weather will become cold and rainy. If they roam out onto the course, the weather will be sunny and fair. The goats have done this since the course opened in the 1860s.

[Indy Anna Jones]

They have kind of the same thing here in the USA, but the goats are called "golf widows."
