The time is Gregorian calendar1October 22 or 23 165438, that is, when the sun reaches 240 degrees of the yellow meridian. Light snow is a solar term reflecting precipitation and temperature, and it is a solar term with high frequency of cold wave and strong cold air activity. The arrival of the light snow solar term means that the weather is getting colder and colder and the precipitation is gradually increasing.

"Snow" is the product of cold weather, so "light snow" is used to describe the climate characteristics of this solar term "the climate is not deep and the precipitation is not heavy". The "light snow" solar term reflects the changing trend of temperature and precipitation, and does not mean that there is a small amount of snow under this solar term. The solar term "light snow" is not necessarily related to the "light snow" in the weather.

Introduction of light snow meteorological change;

Light snow is a solar term reflecting precipitation and temperature, and it is a solar term with high frequency of cold wave and strong cold air activity. Light snow solar terms indicate that a relatively stable meridional circulation has been established in East Asia. When the Siberian depression or trough moves eastward, there will be a wide range of cold air going south, which will bring a wide range of windy and cool weather. There is no necessary connection between the light snow in solar terms and the light snow in the weather. The meaning of "light snow" in solar terms is different from that in daily weather forecast. Light snow solar term is a climate concept, which reflects the temperature and precipitation.

The "light snow" in the weather forecast refers to the snow with less snowfall intensity. Meteorologically, the horizontal visible distance is equal to or greater than 1000m, the ground snow depth is less than 3cm, and the snowfall in 24 hours is between 0. 1-2.4mm, which is called "light snow". ..

Light snow solar terms do not necessarily snow. In fact, the solar terms with the largest snowfall in the whole year are not in light snow and heavy snow. For example, the solar term with the largest annual snowfall 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", but a "rainy" solar term in spring.
