Is it better to rain or sunny in the 2022 Snow Festival?

Solar terms reflect weather and climate. In fact, the temperature at this time is already relatively low, but there are also regional differences. People will pay great attention to the climate of heavy snow and solar terms, because no matter which solar term, there are some farming things to pay attention to. So let's take a look at the relevant content today.

Is it better to rain or sunny in 2022?

In 2022, the solar terms of heavy snow will actually rain better than sunny days.

If the weather is fine, when we arrive in early spring, it will be very cold in late spring, and it is easy to kill plants and crops. If it rains or snows, it can protect the winter wheat of field crops, not only replenish water, but also help keep warm when it snows. Wheat covers three beds and sleeps in steamed bread, which is the reason for this year's bumper harvest. In addition, snow can kill virus pests and so on, which is good for people, animals and crops. So everyone prays for rain or heavy snow every year.

Sunny days are terrible when it snows heavily. From the perspective of crops, farmland growth and crop growth need temperature, moisture and farmland. If the rainfall released in winter cools down to a certain extent, then in spring and spring, the cooled water will accumulate, which should be the time to heat up. However, due to too much precipitation, there is no way to raise the temperature, and crops cannot germinate and grow in time, which affects the annual harvest.

What folk activities are there in the snow festival?

There are activities of storing ice, curing meat and eating caramel in the Snow Festival.

1. Ice storage: In ancient times, there were no refrigerators or electric fans. In order to enjoy ice cubes in hot summer, people will store a lot of ice cubes during heavy snow, whether official or private. The custom of storing ice has a long history. China's ice bank had a considerable scale in the Western Zhou Dynasty. At that time, igloos were all built on the ground floor, sealed with bricks, stones, pottery pieces and the like, or burned with walls, which had a good insulation effect.

2. Bacon: During the heavy snow festival, people began to pickle meat. Pickled meat, sausages, salted fish and other pickles will be hung on the doorways and windowsills of many houses, forming a very beautiful landscape. Legend has it that there is a fierce monster with a long head and sharp horns called Nian. Living in the depths of the sea all the year round, but climbing ashore on New Year's Eve hurts people. In order to avoid the injury in 2008, people stayed indoors at the end of the year. Because many foods need to be stored before the Chinese New Year, and because the preserved food has a long shelf life, people began to preserve meat.

3. Eat caramel: In northern China, when it snows heavily, people still have the custom of eating caramel. Candy, also known as syrup among the people, is very popular with children. At this time, candy vendors will appear at the school gate and beside the park, attracting many children, women and the elderly to buy them.
