What is winter like?

Winter is a white season. White sky, white roof, white earth. When it snows, there should be white soft snowflakes falling from the sky and falling on pedestrians walking on the road, stretching out their palms and melting at the touch.

The snow stopped, and civilized ice hung on the trees and eaves by the roadside. People with childlike innocence make snowmen and have snowball fights together in the thick snow. Winter is also called winter.

Climatic characteristics

In northern China, snow is an important symbol of winter. In the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River in northern China and its vicinity, the snow in winter is often not as big as the light snow solar terms. The main reason is that the light snow solar term is ahead, the temperature is high, the total amount of water vapor in the air is larger than that of heavy snow solar term, and the possibility of heavy snow is greater.

In fact, the solar term with the heaviest snow in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River and its vicinity 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 a rainy solar term in spring.
