The origin of heavy snow solar terms:

At this time, the lowest temperature in most parts of China has dropped to 0℃ or below. Often, in areas where cold and warm air meets strong cold air fronts, there will be heavy snow or even blizzard. It can be seen that the solar terms of heavy snow indicate the beginning time of this period and the degree of heavy snow. Like the solar terms of light snow, rain and valley, it is a solar term that directly reflects precipitation.

In ancient times, there were three waits every five days after heavy snow: one for the owl not to sing; Second, wait for the tiger to pay; Third, wait for the plum to stand out. (Seventy-two episodes of "Moon Order")

This means that the birds in Hao Han stop singing because of the cold weather; At this time, Yin Qi was in its heyday, the so-called prosperity and decline, Yang Qi had sprouted, and the tiger began to courtship; Litchi is a kind of bluegrass, which feels the germination of yang and sends out new buds. People often say that snow will bring a good harvest. Snow covers the earth in severe winter, so that the temperature of the ground and crops will not drop very low due to the cold current, and crops in winter create a good wintering environment. When the snow melts, the fork increases the soil water content to meet the needs of crop growth in spring. The content of nitride in snow water is five times that of ordinary water, which has a certain role in fertilizing fields. There is a peasant proverb, this year, wheat will be covered with three layers, and next year, steamed bread will be used.
