In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 263, verse 20.
Disorders of rain end by worshipping Parjanya, the Moon and the Sun. Rivers and lakes move away from the city, or come close to it.
Simple meaning: Worshipping Parjanya, the Moon and the Sun ends rain troubles. Rivers moving away from or toward a city is a portent.
नद्यो ह्रदप्रस्रवणा विरसाश्च भवन्ति च ।
Rivers, lakes and springs moving or turning tasteless is a portent. Chant the Varuna mantra to calm it.
अकालप्रसवा नार्यः कालतो वाऽप्रजास्तथा ।
Women giving birth out of season, staying childless in season, or having odd births or twins are portents.
विजात्यं विकृतं वाऽपि षड्भिर्मासैर्म्रियेत वै ।
An odd or deformed birth can mean a death within six months, or fear of an enemy army.
