What does it mean to be a little hot?

Summer is the eleventh of the twenty-four solar terms, at the end of the afternoon and the beginning of the month.

When the sun reaches 15 degrees, the festival is held on July 6-8 of the Gregorian calendar every year.

Summer, which means hot, is a slight summer heat, not very hot. Although light summer is not the hottest season in a year, it is followed by the hottest solar term in a year. There is a folk saying that "it is hot in summer and hot in summer, and it is steamed and cooked".

Many places in China have entered the season with the most thunderstorms since summer.
