Is the solstice night in the East winter or the night before yesterday?

Different places have different sayings, and the most popular saying now is the night before the winter solstice.

According to legend, the winter solstice is the earliest of the 24 solar terms and the first of the 24 solar terms. On the day of winter solstice, the sun moves to 270 degrees of the yellow meridian (winter solstice), and the position of the sun directly on the ground reaches the southernmost point of the year. The sun is almost direct to the Tropic of Capricorn (also known as the winter solstice daily line), and the sun is most biased towards the northern hemisphere.

Therefore, in all parts of the northern hemisphere, the winter solstice is the shortest day in a year, and the farther north, the shorter the day. North of the Arctic Circle, the sun is below the horizon all day, which is the widest day of the year in the northern hemisphere.

For all parts of the northern hemisphere, the winter solstice is also the day with the lowest sun height at noon all year round. During the winter solstice, the northern hemisphere gets the least solar radiation, about 50% less than the southern hemisphere.
