Weather changes of animals and plants
Before the rain, there was more water in the air, and the ant nest became wet, which made the ants unable to live peacefully and leave the ant nest.
* * "Dragonflies fly low, there is no wind in the rain.
Before the rain, the air pressure was low, and insects mostly floated at low altitude. Dragonflies often fly in the air two or three meters above the ground in order to feed, which is a sign of impending rain.
* * "The spider web is well woven, but the web is cloudy".
After the rain, the air pressure increases and the humidity decreases. Spiders open their nets to catch insects. Spiders don't weave webs in stormy weather. Therefore, it is possible to predict sunny and cloudy weather by spider web-building and web-building.
* * "Earthworms crawling on the road, the rain is messy. The mole sings and the weather is fine. "
Earthworms like to dig holes in places with low humidity and loose soil, such as digging activities, which shows that there is more water vapor in the air and low air pressure, which is a sign of heavy rain. Lilacs (also known as dragonflies) also make holes in the soil and sing at dusk in summer. The mole's voice shows that there is not much water vapor in the air, which is a sign of sunny days.
* * "Worm corridor, signs of rain. Toad croak, rain is coming. "
Snakes are often called worms. The snake gallery shows that the humidity in the air increases, the air pressure is low, and the water vapor in the cave is not easy to diffuse and evaporate, so it is sultry and the snake has difficulty breathing. When it comes out of the hole, it can breathe, and it will rain soon. Toads are amphibians. Before the rain, the air pressure was low and there was a lot of water vapor. Frogs cry when they feel that they can't breathe well. Before the thunderstorm, toad called it this way: his voice was not loud, intermittent, big and small, and his voice was hoarse.
* * "Crows sing late, and the wind and rain are not far away."
The crow's head is always against the wind. At night, crows fly around in the sky and croak, indicating that the wind direction in the sky is uncertain, which is a sign of wind and rain in the sky.
Willow in summer, willow leaves droop and sway with the wind, which is a kind of scenery; But if the willow leaves turn white, it indicates that rainy weather is coming. In fact, if you look closely, you will find that it is not that the willow leaves turn white, but that they will all turn over before the rainy day. The reverse side of the willow leaves is light green and there is a layer of "white frost" on the surface. Interested parties may wish to observe and verify it before and after the summer and autumn rainy season.
The top of the pumpkin vine usually grows slowly downward, but if the top of the pumpkin vine is generally upward in summer morning, it indicates that the weather will turn from sunny to rainy. On the contrary, if the top of the pumpkin vine is generally downward in rainy weather, it indicates that the weather will be fine.
Tao Zhu is a plant in the south of China, which grows bamboo shoots every year. When the bamboo shoots grow in the middle of the mother bamboo (commonly known as "mother holding her cubs"), it means that the winter of that year is relatively cold; On the contrary, when bamboo shoots grow on the periphery of the mother bamboo (commonly known as "holding the baby girl"), it indicates that the winter of that year is warmer.
Mimosa is wonderful: if you touch it, its leaves meet and hang down like shyness. Among them, due to the different degree of shyness, the weather is different: if the touched mimosa leaves close and droop quickly, it will take a long time to recover, which means clear skies in Wan Li and Wan Li; On the contrary, the leaves contract slowly after being touched, droop slowly, or open slightly, indicating that the wind and rain are coming.
Artemisia annua (mainly Artemisia annua and Artemisia ordosica) is a drought-tolerant wild plant of Compositae, which is distributed all over China. If it is found that many tender buds are born at its roots in dry weather, it indicates that it will rain soon.
Ligustrum lucidum is an evergreen tree, and its leaves grow with autumn. If there is an abnormality in summer, there are only fallen leaves and few leaves (or long leaves), as if it is going to sleep in winter, it indicates that there will be rainy weather in autumn in the next 2-3 months, that is, as the saying goes: "Privet Ye Quan falls, and there will be showers in autumn."
