Every year around 65438+February 7th in Gregorian calendar, when the sun reaches 255 degrees of the Yellow Meridian, it is a solar term of heavy snow. Heavy snow belongs to one of the 24 solar terms, which are the product of farming civilization. The main climatic factors affecting agricultural production are precipitation, temperature and light. Like the light snow solar term, the heavy snow solar term is a solar term reflecting the changing trend of temperature and precipitation, and it is also a reflection of farming culture on festivals. The arrival of heavy snow solar terms means that the weather is getting colder and colder and precipitation is increasing.

Heavy snow solar terms are characterized by a significant drop in temperature and an increase in precipitation. During the heavy snow season, most parts of China have entered winter, and the minimum temperature has dropped to 0℃ or below. In areas where cold air meets warm air at the front of strong cold air, there will be heavy snow or even blizzard. At this time, snow has gradually accumulated in the Yellow River basin, and in the farther north, it is snowing heavily.

The origin of the twenty-four solar terms:

Twenty-four solar terms are a way of time division formed in agricultural activities in ancient China, and its origin can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, people have been able to predict the weather and seasonal changes by observing the movement of the sun, and then carry out agricultural activities according to the climate characteristics of different seasons. Twenty-four solar terms are the summary and standardization of this time division, so as to better guide agricultural production.

Specifically, the twenty-four solar terms refer to the specific festivals in the China lunar calendar that express seasons and climate, and consist of twenty-four solar terms with an interval of 15 days. These solar terms are divided according to the position of the sun on the ecliptic, that is, the orbit of the earth around the sun. Each solar term represents certain climatic characteristics and agricultural activities, such as vernal equinox, autumnal equinox, summer solstice and winter solstice.
