2022 nationwide first snow map released
Yesterday was the light snow in the 24th solar term, so did it snow in your place? Anyway, I didn’t see it in the south. It has already fallen in many places in the north. So what about those places where it has already received the first snow? Below This is a list of places with the first snowfall in the country. If you are interested, you can check it out.
Yesterday (November 22), various parts of our country entered the light snow solar term. This is the second solar term in winter, which means that the weather is getting colder and snowfall is starting to begin. Usually at this time, the winter territory continues to expand from the Huanghuai area to the south, the national average temperature will also fall below freezing, and many places in the north will receive the first snow. China Weather Network has specially launched a map of the first snowfall during the light snow period and a ranking list of the probability of encountering snow in large cities to see which cities have the strongest "winter mood".
The weather gets colder during the annual light snow period
The national average temperature drops below freezing
The light snow is divided into three periods: the first period is when the rainbow disappears; the second period is when the weather rises and the ground Qi drops; the three seasons are blocked and winter begins. During this season, the weather turns cold, the precipitation turns from rain to snow, everything loses its vitality, and the world becomes closed and enters the harsh winter.
It can be seen from the map of the average temperature evolution of each solar term in autumn and winter in my country that during the light snow solar term, the national average temperature fell below the freezing point for the first time in the second half of the year, from 3.4℃ in the beginning of winter to -0.1℃, and then fell to -0.1℃. It is getting colder and colder, and various places will gradually enter a truly cold winter.
The map of the first snowfall in the country during the light snow solar term is released
The Huanghuai River in North China may welcome the first snow of winter
“The light snow is cold and it will snow, but the ground is not too cold. The snow is not heavy yet. "During the Light Snow solar term, the weather is cold and the precipitation changes from rain to snow. However, because "the ground is not very cold" at this time, the amount of snow is not enough, so it is called Light Snow.
According to Shi Yan, a meteorological analyst at China Weather Network, North China and the Huanghuai area will receive the first snowfall during the light snow solar term all year round. Among the big cities, Beijing, Tianjin, Shijiazhuang, Jinan, Zhengzhou, Taiyuan, Xi'an and other places often see the first snow of winter during this season.
However, our country has a vast territory, and the time of first snowfall varies greatly from place to place. Most areas in the northeast and northwest have already received the first snowfall before the light snow solar term. In some places, it even begins to snow in mid-to-late October. Most of the south usually doesn’t see snow until mid-December.
Ranking of probability of encountering snow during light snow solar terms
Northern cities grouped on the list and Urumqi won the championship
China Weather Network counted provincial capital cities from 1991 to 2020 According to the snowfall data, during the light snow solar term, the average number of snowfall days in Urumqi can reach 6.8, and the probability of "encountering snow" exceeds 40%. The probability of "encountering snow" in Harbin and Changchun is 29.8% and 23.6% respectively. In addition, the probability of snowfall in Shenyang, Hohhot, Xining, and Lanzhou is also 10% to 20% during this solar term.
The light snow arrives at the beginning of winter
Winter wax wind is the time for pickling
After the light snow solar term, the temperature drops sharply and the air becomes dry, which is very suitable for pickling and pickling. Food is stored in the winter, so there is a folk custom of "pickling the winter wax and storing it to survive the winter".
Guangdong, Sichuan, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi and other places in China have always had the custom of pickling sausages. People will kill pigs and sheep during the Xiaoxue solar term, and use salt with a certain proportion of pepper, anise, Star anise, cinnamon, cloves and other spices are pickled and dried to make cured meat for New Year's consumption.
Some areas in the north are accustomed to making sauerkraut and pickled vegetables during the light snow solar term. In ancient times, in order to have enough vegetables to eat during the long winter, people pickled various vegetables (cabbage, radish, etc.) to extend their storage time as much as possible to prepare them for winter consumption. Although keeping vegetables fresh in winter is no longer a problem now, this custom of pickling has still been preserved, and sauerkraut and pickles have become specialties in some places.
China Weather Network reminds you that cured meats and pickles contain high salt content. Please pay attention to the appropriate amount when enjoying them. It is best to eat them with vegetables rich in vitamin C. In addition, after the light snow solar term, the weather becomes colder. Friends should prepare scarves, gloves and other cold-proof equipment, and add clothes in time to prevent colds.
