The day after tomorrow on the winter solstice, why do experts call this winter a warm winter?Is it beneficial to soak in hot springs on the winter solstice?
Introduction: December 22, the winter solstice, is"Number nine"of the beginning. At this time, the temperature drops, the cold hits, and the coldest season of the year is coming.
With the arrival of the winter solstice, all parts of the country officially entered"Count nine cold days"。The number nine is a traditional Chinese folklore, starting from the winter solstice, and counting every nine days"Nine", all the way to 981 days, a total of ninety-nine. In this process, it is believed that after counting nine cold days, spring will come.
Of course, on the day of the winter solstice, people usually eat some traditional foods, such as dumplings, glutinous rice balls, oil cakes, etc., and will also worship ancestors, pray for blessings, and celebrate the harvest, as people often say"The winter solstice is as big as a year", so the winter solstice is as important as New Year's Day.
Also at this time, it is cold in all parts of the country and people's body temperature is lower than in previous years. However, according to the National Climate Center's previous **, the temperature in most areas this winter is close to or above normal for the same period of the year, that is, most of this winter will be a warm winter. But why do people feel so cold?
First, you need to understand the definition of warm and cold winters. A warm winter is when the average temperature throughout the winter is higher than normal for the same period of the year, while a cold winter is the opposite, where the average temperature is lower than normal for the same period of the year. While experts will be warmer this winter, that doesn't mean every day will be warmer than usual.
In other words, warm or cold winters are not determined by a single meteorological element, but by comparing the average temperature over a period of time and whether it is significantly higher or lower compared to the same period in history. This is the reason for the previous ** warm winter. Although the weather is colder during the period, the average temperature in winter is likely to be higher than usual. This also reflects the frequent fluctuations in temperatures this winter, and the cold will not last long.
Secondly, the reason why this winter is particularly cold may be related to several reasons:
The first is climate change: global warming is leading to an increase in extreme weather events such as cold snaps and blizzards. These extreme weather events make winter temperatures more erratic and more likely to be colder than usual.
The second is the geographical location: there is a huge temperature difference between the equator and the poles, which forms a strong westerly jet stream, which under the influence of global warming begins to move south**, forming a cold wave that makes people feel cold. In addition, our country is located in the northern hemisphere, and the sun shines directly on the southern hemisphere in winter, so the higher the northern latitude, the colder the northern hemisphere. As a result, temperatures are generally lower during the winter solstice, which is one of the reasons why this winter has been particularly cold.
In addition, global temperatures are generally on the rise due to the El Niño phenomenon, so global temperatures are higher than usual this winterHowever, El Niño has also increased the frequency of extreme weather events, leading to several cold snaps this winter.
In fact, this year's cold weather has already taken a toll on people. From south to north, many places have experienced varying degrees of low temperatures, snowfall, and freezing weather. This has brought certain inconvenience to people's travel, life and work.
In conclusion, while the experts** will be warm as spring this winter, it does not mean that every day will be warm as spring. Therefore, we need to use the recent weather as a guide, try to be as warm as possible, and strengthen precautions in terms of exercise and diet. We should also pay attention to weather forecasts and related information in order to respond to the effects of cold weather and situations that endanger our health and safety.
