Today is St. Medard Day, 40 Days of Rain?
June 8th is St. Medard Day. Who's St. Medard you may ask? Well, St. Medard lived about 1500 years ago in France and is the patron saint of weather and rain. And it is tradition that on this very day if it rains then we'll have 40 more days of rain. If it's nice weather today, then we'll have 40 days of fine weather.
