What is the season of white clothes (waiting for white clothes ... light snow)
Xiaoxue knowledge
"Light snow" indicates the beginning time and degree of snowfall. After entering the "light snow" solar term, the temperature will be lower and lower, which is directly manifested as the temperature gradually dropping below zero degrees Celsius. "Twenty-four solar terms" said: "In the middle of June of 5438+00, it rained and was blown thin by the cold, so it condensed into snow. The words of the villain are not prosperous. " The ancient book "Qunfangpu" said: "A light snow will snow when it is cold, but the ground is not cold and the snow is not heavy." Speaking of light snow solar terms, due to the cold weather, the form of precipitation changed from rain to snow, but at this time, because the ground is not very cold, the number of snows is small and the amount of snow is not large, so it is called light snow. So light snow indicates the beginning time and degree of snowfall. Light snow, like rain and Grain Rain, is a solar term that directly reflects precipitation.
Xiao Xue Sanhou
According to the observation of nature, the ancients in China divided the "light snow" into three stages: "When the rainbow disappeared; Second, the weather is rising and the atmosphere is falling; It was blocked three times and became winter. " This means that the rainbow will not appear at this time, everything will lose its vitality, and the world will be blocked and become a cold season.

Planting soup meat
"Light snow kills pigs and heavy snow kills sheep." In many places, every two solar terms of light snow and heavy snow, villagers began to kill pigs and sheep to prepare for the New Year.

Cold and warm
Since this solar term, the northeast wind has blown much more.
