Solar term proverb: Why is it "rainy in summer?"

It rains in summer, and people are worried.

If it rains in summer, there will be more rain in autumn. However, the meteorological department said that this is scientific to some extent, but it does not apply to every year.

Meteorologists explained that this is just a solar term proverb summed up by people based on years of experience. The summer heat will end on this day, and the temperature in most parts of China will gradually drop, the cold air activity will increase and the rainfall will gradually decrease. Summer rainfall proves that frequent cold air activities will lead to continuous autumn rain, but this is not absolute. In some years, after summer, the "autumn tiger" is very powerful.

But after summer, the temperature is low in the morning and evening and high in the daytime. In autumn, people are prone to autumn dryness. At this time, people need to replenish more water and eat more foods that clear away heat and soothe the nerves. In particular, they need to strengthen physical exercise and enhance their immunity to diseases.

The folk proverb says that "it rains in summer, and people are worried", which means that there is much rain in autumn, and the harvest is not guaranteed; Another meaning is that if it rains in summer, the autumn tiger will turn back quickly.
