What kind of weather can you expect when tree leaves turn upside down in a fresh breeze?

Rain clouds are low, close to the ground, therefore creating high pressure. The air bounces up from the ground and turns the leaves. Take note that it is the leaves towards the bottom of the tree. When the leaves turn, rain is moving in. A tree cannot automatically turn its leaves over. Hope this helps you.
