What is the ranking of summer solar terms?

The fifth solar term in summer marks the official start of the last month of summer. Summer heat means heat, and a little summer heat means slight heat, which means the weather is getting hot, but it is not the hottest yet. This climate is basically the same in most parts of China.

Summer climate:

It's a little hot in the summer, not very hot. It's the hottest time of the year in the summer. In summer, the rainy season in the Jianghuai basin is coming to an end, and the temperature rises in summer, entering the summer drought period. However, when North China and Northeast China entered the rainy season, tropical cyclones were active frequently, and the number of tropical cyclones landing in China began to increase.

In summer, the average temperature in the south of China is about 26 degrees Celsius. In mid-July, the average daily temperature in the low-altitude valley area in southeast China was higher than 30℃, and the maximum daily temperature was higher than 35℃. In the northern part of the northwest plateau, frost and snow can still be seen at this time, which is equivalent to the scene of early spring in South China.

Since the beginning of summer, the plum rains in the Jianghuai basin have ended one after another, and the southeast monsoon rainy season from the Pacific Ocean has begun in the vast areas north of the Huaihe River and east of the Qinling Mountains. The precipitation has increased significantly and the rainfall is relatively concentrated. South China, Southwest China and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are also in the southwest monsoon rainy season from Indian Ocean and South China Sea of China. The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are generally hot and rainy under the control of subtropical high. In some years, the cold air force in the north is still strong before and after the slight summer heat, and it is evenly matched with the warm air in the south in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, leading to frontal thunderstorms. Thundershowers in summer are often the weather information of Huangmei, which indicates that the rain belt will stay in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River for some time.

Around the summer heat, most of southern China entered the season with the most thunderstorms. Thunderstorm is a disastrous weather phenomenon, often accompanied by strong winds, heavy rain and sometimes hail, which is easy to cause disasters. In the eastern part of South China, because it is often controlled by subtropical high, it is often sunny and hot, and after experiencing a slight summer heat, it begins to enter the summer drought period. Climatic characteristics of drought in the east and waterlogging in the west in most parts of southern China.

Traditional activities in summer vacation:

1, eat summer sheep

Eating sheep in summer is a traditional custom in southern Shandong and northern Jiangsu in summer. After summer, just after the third summer, and before the autumn harvest, farmers who have been busy for half a year will eat summer sheep in groups of three or five households and seven or eight households. At this time, the little goat who grew up drinking mountain spring water has been eating grass for several months, and it is tender and fragrant. This custom can be traced back to the Yao and Shun period. There is a saying among the local people that "Yang Yi Bowl of Soup does not need a doctor to open it." Xuzhou people love to eat summer sheep, which is nothing more than a local folk song: "Pick up the girl on June 6, and make new wheat cake mutton soup."

On the day of the summer heat, people in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province have the habit of eating mutton, which is called "eating sheep". This custom can be traced back to the Yao and Shun period, and there is a folk saying that "Pengcheng helps sheep with a bowl of soup without a doctor". People in Xuzhou love Fuyang, which is nothing more than a local folk song "Pick up girls on June 6th and make new wheat cake mutton soup".

Step 2 eat new things

Many folk places have the custom of "eating new things" in summer. Farmers will cook with new rice, worship the grain gods and ancestors, and pray for a bumper harvest after autumn. Then people happily taste new wine and so on. In some places, the newly harvested wheat is fried, then ground into flour and eaten with water and sugar. This way of eating, as early as the Han Dynasty, was more common in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Su Gong, a medical scientist in the Tang Dynasty, said that fried noodles can "clear away heat and stop diarrhea and strengthen the intestines".

In the folk, people should taste new rice after the heat, which is the custom of "eating new" in the heat. In midsummer, farmers will grind the newly harvested rice into rice, and then cook the new rice into delicious rice to worship the five grain gods and ancestors. On this day, every household should eat new rice and taste new wine. It is said that "eating new things" means "eating new things", which is the first new day after the summer festival. People who live in the city will buy a small amount of new rice and newly listed vegetables and fruits in summer, and cook the new rice and old rice together at home. As the saying goes, there is also a saying that "millet is eaten in summer and whole grains are eaten in summer". China is vast in territory and abundant in natural resources, and summer is the season when everything grows, so there are the most delicious foods in this season.
