In the blink of an eye, the second to last of the twenty-four solar terms - Xiaohan is about to come.
The twenty-four solar terms were summarized by the ancients based on the angle of the sun moving on the ecliptic plane and the regular changes in the climate every year. The crystallization of wisdom, the twenty-four solar terms played a certain guiding role in agricultural production in ancient times. In ancient times when there were no weather forecasts or climate detection, people used the climate changes of the twenty-four solar terms to predict the direction of the climate. This is also reflected in the common sayings that are easy to understand and concise.
As the saying goes: "Small cold and major cold, prepare for the New Year". It can be seen that minor cold and major cold will appear in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. This also adds a touch of human fireworks to the cold winter.
After the winter solstice, people began to " count nine ", and Xiaohan and Dahan included three nine and forty-nine. Folk nursery rhymes sang: "three-nine-nine and four-nine walking on the ice", Therefore, both the Minor Cold and the Great Cold are scenes of ice and snow, and there are nine cold days. As the saying goes: " The minor cold and the great cold freeze into a ball", " the minor cold and the great cold freeze into an ice ball". The common saying vividly expresses the characteristics of both the minor cold and the great cold.
So, what is the forecast for the future weather trend based on the weather on Xiaohan day? Let’s see what the saying goes!
There is a saying that goes like this: "It snows for three days during the minor cold, and the cattle do not stop.". It means that if it snows for many days before and after the minor cold, it proves that this winter has sufficient snow, the minor cold is cold enough, and the cold is in season. It also means that the climate in the coming year is suitable for agricultural production, which is a good sign. Therefore, "the cattle do not stop." Stop "
As we all know, most snow in winter occurs in the northern region of . According to the saying, "the minor cold is better than the major cold. It is common and not rare." The minor cold in the northern is the coldest time of the year. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it snowed for three days before and after the minor cold.
In addition, there is another situation, that is, the minor cold is not cold enough. Compared with previous years, it is a warm winter. What are the signs of this situation?
As the saying goes: " it is raining in the slight cold, and the rain still freezes the rice seedlings", which means that the minor cold is not cold enough, and it rarely rains but does not snow. In this case, it will still be cold during the rain season in the coming year, which means that the cold wave has been postponed, and "back-spring cold" "The phenomenon of "slight cold and warmth, the beginning of spring snow"
the occurrence of late spring cold is not good for the growth of spring crops, because at this time the spring crops are in the growth stage after germination and have insufficient ability to withstand the cold. If late spring cold occurs, a large number of spring crops will fall, resulting in reduced production. Therefore, late spring cold is a natural disaster and should not be underestimated.
As the saying goes: " Xiaohan is not cold, Qingming is a quagmire." It can be seen that if Xiaohan is a warm winter, floods may occur in the coming year. Of course, this is just a summary of the common saying.
It is worth noting that this year's "Great Cold" solar term occurs on New Year's Eve. So, will this year's New Year be cold? Generally speaking, the major cold in the north is warmer than the minor cold. Therefore, for friends in the north, by the New Year, the coldest season has passed. The major cold in the south will be colder than the minor cold. This is what the saying goes, "the minor cold is not cold and the major cold is cold". This is due to the cold wave moving south. Therefore, for friends in the south, the New Year is the coldest time of the year.
and above are the proverbial predictions about the minor cold weather and the weather trend after the minor cold.
