What is the beautiful meaning of heavy snow solar terms?

A new life and a bumper harvest in the coming year. Heavy snow has the most cloudy solar terms, so-called ups and downs, and yang has sprouted; "Heavy snow indicates a bumper harvest" is a popular agricultural proverb, which means that several heavy snows in winter indicate a bumper harvest of crops in the coming year.

The ancients in China divided the heavy snow into three periods: when the birds were silent, when the tigers began to have sex, and when the pears stood out. In other words, due to the cold weather at this time, Hao Han birds no longer sing; Heavy snow and solar terms are full of yin, so-called ups and downs, yang has sprouted, and tigers have begun to courtship; "Li" is Malan grass, that is, Malan flower, and it is said that it can also feel the germination of yang and pull out new buds.

Heavy snow and solar terms, the cold wind on the plateau, and those thin trees, although cold and desolate, also have their own beauty. Birds are not afraid of the cold, jumping and playing on eaves, branches and rivers; The north wind rustled, frozen the river and dyed the child's face red; The distant mountains and white heads lead the shepherds back; Everything is silent, but it is quietly gestating a new life in the coming year.

Step 2 harvest

"Heavy snow indicates a bumper harvest" is a popular agricultural proverb, which means that several heavy snows in winter indicate a bumper harvest of crops in the coming year. This is not only a summary of our ancestors' agricultural production experience, but also has sufficient scientific basis.

The water brought by the melting of snow can replenish water for the soil and prevent crops from drought. "It snowed heavily, but the wheat was not bad." It seldom rains in the north of China in winter and spring. The water melted by snow can not only alleviate the drought in early spring, but also promote the metabolism of plants through frozen snow water, which is very beneficial to spring ploughing and sowing and the growth and development of overwintering crops.

Meteorological changes of solar terms in heavy snow

"Heavy snow" is a solar term reflecting the climate characteristics. The characteristics of heavy snow solar terms are that the temperature drops obviously compared with autumn and early winter, and the precipitation increases. During the heavy snow season, most parts of China have entered the cold winter, and the minimum temperature in some parts of the north has dropped to 0℃ or below. Cold and warm air in areas where strong cold air fronts meet, precipitation (rain or snow) increases. Meteorology refers to the condensation of water vapor falling from the sky to the ground, such as rain, snow and hail, as "precipitation".

The snow in heavy snow solar terms is often not as big as that in light snow solar terms, and the solar terms with the largest amount of snow in the whole year are not in light snow and heavy snow solar terms. Take the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River as an example. Among the 24 solar terms, the solar term with the most snow all year round is neither "light snow and heavy snow" nor "slight cold and severe cold" (because the temperature was low at that time and there was less water vapor in the atmosphere), but "rain" in spring. This snow is not the biggest in the solar terms.

The reason is similar to "light snow is bigger than heavy snow". That is, the end of February in the Gregorian calendar has passed the coldest period of the year. In early spring, the warm air in the south began to be active and the water vapor began to be rich. At this time, the cold air force in the north is still very strong, and the warm air flow rises strongly and persistently on the back of the dense cold air flow, which may lead to heavy snow. There is no necessary connection between solar terms and heavy snow.
