The Ice Saints and their meaning
Gardeners know:After the Ice Saints(Pankrazi, Servazi, Bonifazi, Mamertus and Sophie) there is no longer any danger of frost and you can take your plants outside without any worries and really blossom in the garden. Or as the farmers put it: “Until Pankratius, Servatius and Boniface are over, May is not safe from the cold.”
But what else do the golden farming rules say about the Ice Saints?
- Mamertus on May 11th: “Saint Mamerz has a heart of ice.”
- On May 12th: “If it freezes on Pankratius, a lot of things in the garden will be ruined.”
- The following applies on May 13th: “The weather was not warm before Servatius, but now it is getting nicer day by day.”
- Sophie influences May 14th: “Sophie is called the cold one because she likes to bring cold weather.” and “The cold Sophie, she likes to bring a downpour at the end.”
Farmer's rules about the weather - the dormouse and what it brings
It is expected that the weather on this day will continue for a while. If it is sunny, it should stay that way for the next 7 weeks. Is it raining? Then a seven-week period of rain awaits us. Or as it originally says:
- “The weather on Dormouse Day may last another seven weeks.”
- “If the dormouse is wet, it rains constantly.”
A hot first week of August means lots of winter snow
Thunderstorms in September – cold in February
Snow in October – Mild winter
If the leaves don't fall on time, the winter will be long
For summer to be warm, winter must be cold
