SAA 08 031. Thunder in Ab [weather]
(1) This rain and thunder concerns the appointed time of the sighting of Venus. (4) If in Ab (V) Adad thunders, the day becomes cloudy, it rains, a rainbow stretches, lightning flashes: the floodings will become scarce at the source. (r 1) If it rains on a day without clouds: the land will be reduced by famine. (r 3) If Adad shouts on a day without clouds: there [will] be darkness and famine in the land. (r 5) If a storm [blows] from the west: fall of Elam. (r.e. 7) From Issar-šumu-er[eš].
