During the shock, most areas have begun to warm up and the rain has increased. But at this time, the temperature fluctuates greatly, the climate changes greatly, and the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large, so we must pay attention to keeping warm in time.

2. Frequent pests and diseases. "Spring thunder, everything grows". Farmers often regard the frightened season as the day when spring ploughing begins.

Because of the warm climate, it is easy to cause the occurrence and spread of various pests and diseases, so it is necessary to do a good job in pest control in time.

3. The thunder keeps ringing. Before and after the fright, spring returned to the earth, and spring thunder gradually appeared in most areas of the Yangtze River Basin. As the folk proverb says: "It rained in February before the thunder; After the thunder, it is spring. "That is to say, if the first spring thunder is on the day of thunder, it is considered that the weather is good that year. If the first thunder rang before the sting, it means that there was more rain in that year, and there may be "continuous spring rain".
