4. "Do not hesitate to wash your shirt and trousers before it is foggy." If there is morning fog in autumn and winter, it will be sunny that day. (Baizhou, Guangxi)
5. "Three days of wind, three days of frost and three days of sunshine." This sentence reflects the characteristics of winter weather in Xiamen. It will be windy for three days, cool down for three days, and the sun will come out again and again (the sun is called "the sun" in Xiamen dialect). This folk proverb shows that the cycle of weather changes has rules to follow. (Xiamen, Fujian)
6. "There is no rain on the winter solstice and it will be sunny in winter." It means that the weather on the winter solstice is closely related to the whole winter weather and agricultural activities. If there is no rain on the winter solstice, it will be sunny all winter. (Shantou, Guangdong)
7. "After eating Dragon Boat Festival meat, the dam is tightly built." It means that after the Dragon Boat Festival, the rainy weather will increase, and preparations should be made in advance to prevent floods. (Hangzhou, Zhejiang)
8. "When crows rustle, rain will come." Crows are sensitive to weather changes. Generally, one or two days before the arrival of heavy rain, it will be uncharacteristic, and from time to time it will make a high-pitched cry. Once the cry is hoarse, it is a signal that heavy rain is coming.
9. "It's sunny when birds are noisy, and it's rainy when taking a bath." Sparrows can be called "sunny and rainy birds". If the birds sing clearly in the rainy morning, it indicates that the weather will clear up soon. In summer and autumn, when the weather is sultry and the air is humid, sparrows fly to shallow water to take a bath and dissipate heat. This indicates rain in the next day or two.
1. "Long sunny, foggy and rainy, long rainy, foggy and sunny." This is because the weather is fine for a long time, and the air contains less water. Although it cools down at night, it generally does not produce fog. If there is a sudden fog, it is probably because of the invasion of warm and humid air and the formation of advection fog, which indicates that the weather will turn rainy. On the contrary, there is plenty of water in the air after the rain, but because of the cloud cover, geothermal heat is not easy to disperse, and the ground temperature is not obvious at night, and it is not easy to form fog.
