What's the nickname of the summer solstice?

Summer solstice is another name: summer season, summer solstice festival

The summer solstice is the 10 of the 24 solar terms. Fighting means noon; The yellow meridian of the sun is 90 degrees; June 2 1~22 of Gregorian calendar. On the day of summer solstice, the position where the sun shines directly on the ground reaches the northernmost part of the year, almost directly on the tropic of cancer. At this time, the daylight hours in all parts of the northern hemisphere reach the longest in the whole year. For the Tropic of Cancer and its northern region, the summer solstice is also the highest day at noon in a year.

The solstice in summer is the turning point of the sun's northward movement. After the summer solstice, the direct point of the sun began to move south from the Tropic of Cancer, and the days in the northern hemisphere began to shorten gradually. For China, which is located in the north of the Tropic of Cancer, after the summer solstice, the height of the noon sun begins to decrease day by day; For China, which is located in the south of the Tropic of Cancer, after the summer solstice, the height of the sun returned to the south at noon, and it began to decrease day by day after the sun shone again.

High temperature, high humidity and occasional thunderstorms are the weather characteristics from summer to the future. The summer solstice is in midsummer, that is, at noon, belonging to the sun; Although summer is full of yang and the daytime is the longest, it is not necessarily the hottest day of the year, so the heat near the surface is still accumulating and has not reached the maximum.

The summer solstice is not only one of the 24 solar terms, but also a festival in the ancient "four seasons and eight festivals". Since ancient times, people have the custom of worshipping gods and ancestors in the summer solstice. In addition, after the summer solstice, people generally drink Qingbuliang soup, herbal tea and sour plum soup to escape the heat.

Meteorological changes:

After the summer solstice, although the direct point of the sun began to move south from the Tropic of Cancer, the days in the northern hemisphere began to shorten gradually, but the temperature will continue to rise for a while, because the heat radiated by the sun to the ground is still more than the heat radiated from the ground to the air, so there is a saying that the summer solstice is not too hot. As the saying goes, "it's a hot day in dog days", and the real hot day is from mid-July to mid-August on the Gregorian calendar.

From summer to the sun, the sun directly reaches the northernmost part of the year, and the daylight time in all parts of the northern hemisphere reaches the longest in the year. During this period, the temperature in most parts of China was high, the sunshine was sufficient, the crops grew rapidly, and the physiological and ecological water demand was high. After the summer solstice, the ground is heated strongly and the air convection is strong, and thunderstorms are often easy to form in the afternoon to evening.
