When is the summer solstice in 2022? How many minutes and seconds?

The dates of summer solstice in 2022 are June 2 1, 17: 13:40, Tuesday and May 23 of the lunar calendar.

After the summer solstice, although the direct point of the sun began to move south from the Tropic of Cancer and the days in the northern hemisphere began to shorten gradually, the temperature will continue to rise for a period of time, because the heat radiated by the sun to the ground is still more than that radiated by the ground to the air, so there is a saying that the summer solstice is not too hot.

The custom of summer solstice

Since ancient times, there has been a folk saying that "noodles are eaten on the winter solstice and jiaozi is eaten on the summer solstice", and a folk proverb also says: "Eating noodles on the summer solstice shortens the day." Because new wheat was harvested from summer solstice, the ancients planned to taste new noodles from summer solstice. The practice of noodles in summer solstice is not the usual hot soup noodles, but the noodles over the water. In ancient times, cold water was taken from wells. After the handmade noodles are cooked, they are directly fished into a basin filled with cold well water, and the noodles are cold.

Put the fish in a bowl, then pour in the prepared seasonings and side dishes. The ancients ate cold water in hot summer, which reminded people to pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling. In addition, the ancient folk used slender noodles, which lasted longer than the summer solstice, just like people also ate noodles on their birthdays. In order to get a good lottery.
