Which is colder, slight cold or severe cold?

Under normal circumstances, severe cold is colder than slight cold. However, according to China's long-term meteorological records, there is no slight cold in the north, and there is a saying that "slight cold is better than severe cold" in the north; For most parts of the south, the lowest temperature will still appear in the great cold solar terms, especially in the great cold solar terms.

Cold air is cold for a long time, and slight cold means that the weather is cold but not extreme. Like severe cold, mild summer heat, severe summer heat and intense summer heat, it is a solar term indicating temperature change. The slight cold solar term is characterized by cold, but it is not extremely cold. Great cold, like slight cold, is also a solar term indicating the cold weather. Great cold refers to extremely cold weather. As soon as the great cold is over, a new cycle begins, which means that winter goes and spring comes. In some places in the south of China, especially in rural areas, there are many important folk customs from the Great Cold to beginning of spring, such as rich food, offering sacrifices to stoves and New Year's Eve.
