precursory

In the dark branches of the trees the wind whistled mournfully, and the scudding clouds were precursory of rain.

The inventory of precursory types sees nothing but organic resemblances and disdains the differences of aptitude.

Pigmentation, of a yellowish or brownish color, is often a precursory and accompanying symptom.

As has been mentioned before, it does not as a rule attend the precursory symptoms.

This brilliant sun suddenly burst upon me unheralded by any precursory ray.
