Clouds a Comin'



Have you heard anyone say, "Its comin' up a cloud"? That's what we would say when the dark clouds and thunder started rolling in.   Last week, we had numerous thunderstorms here, and one of my friends said this.   I realized I hadn't heard this spoken in a long time.


My mom would sometimes say, "Its risin' a cloud." As in, "Put that book down and get those clothes off the line right now, its risin' a cloud."


I would be love to hear if we were the only ones that used that phrase.  If not, what did you say?

  1. I've always heard "It's comin' up a cloud." I still say that sometimes, because I want my girls to at least be familiar with the old phrases that I remember.

  2. We might be heard saying, "It's a fixin' to rain!"
