Can spring water predict the weather?
In the South Hot Spring Park in Chongqing, Sichuan, there is a scenic spot called "Five Lakes Occupy Rain". It is a cold mineral spring pool surrounded by stone railings.
people not only drink this spring water, but also predict the weather according to the change of the spring water. When the pool water is clear and transparent, it indicates that the weather will clear up; If the pool water becomes turbid and bubbles. It indicates that it will rain; If the pool water is particularly turbid and there are many bubbles, it is a rainstorm or a heavy rain. Years of observation have proved that this change is quite accurate.
There is also a spring that can predict the weather near Sujia Village, haiyang town, lingchuan county, Guangxi. The villagers here fetch water from the spring every day, so they can predict the weather in recent days according to the change of water. When the spring water is clear, it will be sunny; When a milky "rice soup" gushes from the spring's eyes, it will rain in three days. The day before it rains, you can know the amount of rainfall by looking at the muddy water in the spring. On rainy days, if you see the spring clear, you know it will clear up.
