Meteorological winter solstice solar terms in China

According to the saying that "a refreshing winter solstice is a sloppy year, and a sloppy winter solstice is a refreshing year" and "it will rain on sunny days, it will be warm in winter solstice, and it will be cold in spring", it can be seen that if the weather is good in winter solstice, the weather in the New Year may be relatively worse.

The wind of miles is different, and the customs of miles are different. Common sayings about the winter solstice climate are slightly different in different places. In Jiangxi, there is a proverb: "A refreshing winter solstice is a sloppy year, and a sloppy winter solstice is a refreshing year." Therefore, the weather conditions in winter solstice are contrary to those in Spring Festival. If the weather is good from winter solstice to Sunday, the weather will be relatively bad during the Spring Festival.

The winter solstice is a very important solar term in China. According to the observation and experiment of meteorologists, the period with the most precipitation in a year is almost always under the influence of meteorological typhoons in summer. Therefore, to some extent, whether it rains in winter solstice can still predict the local annual precipitation. This is probably the origin of the phrase "it rains and sunny in the New Year from winter to Sunday, and it rains and sunny in the New Year from winter to Sunday".

However, we can't believe these old sayings too much, because the weather conditions in different places are naturally different. In southern areas, such as the south of the Yangtze River, it often rains on sunny days after the Spring Festival. In the north, you can't tell.

Introduction to winter solstice

The winter solstice is a very important solar term in the China lunar calendar and a very important festival in the traditional culture of China. The time of winter solstice is between 65438+February 2 1 -23 in Gregorian calendar every year. On the solstice of winter, the sun reaches 270 degrees of the yellow meridian, and the northernmost sunshine on the earth is the most oblique, which makes the days in the northern hemisphere shorter and the nights longer.

The solstice in winter is the earliest solar term among the 24 solar terms in China, and it is also the only solar term that starts with "Zi". The origin of the winter solstice can be traced back to the ancient "Nian", on which people held grand sacrificial ceremonies to welcome the New Year. Therefore, the winter solstice is not only a solar term, but also a manifestation of cultural traditions and folk customs.
