Thanks merrycrest have passed this on to grandson. His mum had found reference to condition of rocks being called onion skin but I've told him to impress teacher with this old saying.

In folklore the weather was predicted by different fruit berries, and it true what has been said, onion weather is to do with skin. thick-cold thin-mild, as a matter of interest the onions I;ve dug up have very thin skins ! let's hope rhyme is true.
