The idea that an open pine cone indicates dry weather is a folk belief rather than a scientifically proven fact. Pine cones open up in dry conditions to release seeds, while they tend to close in moist conditions to protect the seeds. However, this behavior can vary with different species of pine trees and environmental factors, so it's not a reliable predictor of rain.

What does a pine cone look like when it starts growing?
i think they come out of the tree in the direction they are facingAnother answer:When pine cones are on the tree, they grow down. The point grows toward the ground. The stem part in the middle of the cone attaches to the cone. The pine cone itself is a container for pine seeds. The cone will open and release the seeds. If you pick up a large pine cone, you may find that the front part has opened and the rear part has not. If you take the part that has not opened and open it, you may find the pine cone seeds inside. Each one is a seed attached to a membrane. The membrane acts like a propeller that helps the seed spin around. If the pine tree burns, all the pine cones open and release all their seeds. The new plants grow straight up.
How do you grow pine trees from pine cones?
Pine cones open up by themselves and then drop the seeds. Sometimes, wildfires make the cones open up. So I'm guessing that you can either wait right under a pine cone and wait for it to open up or you might possibly (note that this has not been tested and may not work) light a candle right underneath the pine cone. This may not work and may result in the tree burning if it catches on fire.
