What does rain mean?

Rain is the second of the 24 solar terms, which means that precipitation begins and the rainfall gradually increases.

Every year from February 18 to 20 in Gregorian calendar, when the solar calendar reaches 330 degrees, it is a rainy solar term. The rain solar term generally starts from February 18 to 20 and ends on March 4 or 5. Rain, like Grain Rain, Xiaoman, light snow and heavy snow, is a solar term reflecting precipitation.

In rainy and solar terms, the direct point of the sun is gradually approaching the equator from the southern hemisphere. At this time, the sunshine hours and intensity in the northern hemisphere are increasing, and the temperature is rising rapidly. Warm and humid air from the ocean becomes active and gradually pushes northward. At the same time, cold air is not to be outdone in the weakening trend, and it frequently competes with warm air to form rainfall.

Matters needing attention in rainy days

There are many thunderstorms in summer, so pedestrians should pay attention to observation and try to avoid lampposts, outdoor air conditioners, landing billboards and other areas. Don't go near or under the overhead lines and transformers to take shelter from the rain, because strong winds may break overhead lines, and lightning strikes and heavy rains may easily cause bare lines or transformers to be short-circuited and discharged, posing a threat to personal safety.

If you find that the wire is broken in the water, don't handle it yourself. You should mark the surrounding area immediately and call the police in time.

When taking various means of transportation, drivers should be warned to drive slowly, not to grab the road, not to grab the time, and to be late would rather have a traffic accident.
