What is dragon boat water?

Dragon Boat Water, also known as Duanyang Water, Dragon Precipitation and Dragon Boat Festival Water, is a unique natural phenomenon in southern China. Before and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the warm and humid air current in southern China is active, and when it meets the cold air from north to south in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Hainan and other places, there will often be continuous and large-scale heavy precipitation. When the dragon boat water comes, the water level of the river rises rapidly, which provides a good venue for dragon boat fishing, which is one of the reasons for the name "Dragon Boat Water".
