Winter is getting deeper, and with the arrival of cold air, several heavy snowfalls have also fallen.
Unlike in the past, there was a phenomenon of snow and thunder all over the country during this snowfall. The winter thunder and purple lightning made people even more panicked. ”
This is not to say that it is the fear of heavy snow, but it is precisely the fear of a folk afterword:"Thunder strikes snow, and people eat iron. ”
Is such a statement alarmist or is it really like the oral tradition of the ancestors thousands of years ago, after the blizzard and winter thunder, there will be a "disaster."
Thunder strikes snow, man eats iron" is an old proverb that is often used to describe the predicament caused by abnormal weather.
However, little is known about the true meaning behind this proverb. In ancient society, people's awe of nature was overflowing, and they tried to read the meaning and foreshadowing by observing various phenomena in the natural world.
It can be said thatThis is not just a simple weather phenomenon, but a testimony to the interweaving of history and culture.
In ancient social conditions, ordinary people could only have access to technical problemsSilver, copper, ironThese are three common metals. And among themIron is also the least valuable and cheapest existence.
It is precisely in this way that the metaphor of "people eating iron" is used as a metaphor for winter lightning strikes, which also implies that people are living in an extremely bad environment and need to spend all their wealth to tide over the difficulties.
In this situation, people's lives have been greatly impacted, and they have to face it not only to faceLivelihood issues, and can also be cornered by various disasters caused by extreme weather.
In fact, the development of science and technology in modern society has significantly improved our knowledge level, and we can understand it"Thunder strikes snow, people eat iron" does not have any superstitious color.
But although the other party is not in the real senseOmen or disasterBut it does bring a certain amount of trouble to people's daily lives. Heavy snowstorms can cause road closures and traffic disruptions.
Ice and snow cover can also pose a threat to buildings, increasing the risk of accidents. In some extreme cases,This natural sight can also lead to damage to crops and cause food shortages.
Still, we should respond to this situation with a positive attitude. The most important thing is that we need to be vigilant and keep an eye on the weather forecast so that we can take timely action.
It is also required during multi-day snowfallPrepare enough supplies such as food and medicineetc., in order to respond to unexpected situations.
Seeing this, I believe everyone understands that this scary-sounding thing is just a way of describing natural disasters, not a real omen.
As long as we have enough preparation and courage, we will be able to calmly deal with all kinds of unexpected situations. But then again, how does thunder and snow come about?
In order to truly "break down superstition," we must understand what "thunder and snow" is.
In fact, the reason for this phenomenon is mainly related to the knowledge of atmospheric physics. Anyone with a little common sense knows thatLightning and thunder are caused by the mutual attraction and repulsion of positive and negative charges within the clouds.
However, the water molecules in the clouds will keep tumbling up and down during vigorous movement, and when they collide with each other, they will produce charge transfer, and some of the ice crystals will be positively charged above the clouds, and others will be negatively charged below the clouds, and lightning will form when the potential difference reaches a critical point.
When it generates high temperatures instantaneously, the surrounding air is generatedSonic boomThat's what we hear in our earsThunder
Spring and summer are the most likely seasons for thunderstorms due to temperature. However, in winter, due to various factors such as low temperature, it is difficult for water to evaporate, and the air humidity is relatively smallCharges in the clouds cannot accumulate effectively, making it difficult to have large-scale thunderstorm activity.
The reason for the phenomenon of thunder and snow is also because when the temperature changes suddenly, the warm and humid air in the south and the cold air in the north collide strongly, and there is a significant upward and downward convection between different airs.
This is similar to the mechanics of thunderstorms in the summer, except thatThe chance of occurrence is relatively low.
It can be said that although snow and thunder in winter is a rare and mysterious phenomenon, we can also explore the laws through in-depth understanding of atmospheric physics.
However, the scientific explanation does not mean that the words handed down by the ancestors are completely dross that need to be eliminated, but everything must be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
Just like we said, thunder and snow, people eat iron only after the blizzardIt's just that the weather will reduce agricultural yields, and we shouldn't demonize it too much.
But this does not have to admit that the words handed down by the older generation are actually the sameintegrated into their own life experience exists。Then again, what about the wisdom of agriculture after the break?
In the long history of our country, agriculture has always occupied an important position. As traditionalA large agricultural countryGenerations of workers have accumulated a wealth of agricultural knowledge and practical experience, which has been passed on by word of mouth to future generations.
Among them, the seemingly simple agricultural afterword contains countless profound wisdom.
Like"It's hard to buy a drought in May with money, and a full meal in June." This phrase tells us that the right timeThe importance of rainfallElephant in the room. Crops in the field need the right amount of water to grow healthily, but over-irrigation or insufficient rainfall can have a negative impact on crops.
If you want your crops to grow well, you need to be flexible and use water wisely to ensure that your crops are adequately hydrated.
While"Inch wheat is not afraid of inch water, but inch wheat is afraid of inch water." It also reveals a seemingly contradictory phenomenon in the planting process.
After all, shorter-length seedlings seem to be more able to withstand heavy rain, while longer-length seedlings are more likely to collapse due to stagnant water. Wheat seedlings of uneven length also have their own characteristics and advantages.
In addition to these familiar agricultural proverbs, there are also some philosophical words. "A rain before and after Qingming is as strong as a show".Timeliness is also emphasizedThe importance of rainfall for crop growth.
In ancient societies, the imperial examination was seen as an important way to change one's fate, but agricultural production was also related to the national economy and people's livelihood. The abundance of rain directly affects the yield and quality of crops, and it can be said that in this sentence, people's understanding and respect for the laws of nature are fully reflected.
In fact, these agricultural proverbs and afterwords are not only simple common sense of life, but also cultural heritage that goes deep into the bone marrow. They embody the hard work and sweat of farmers and the wisdom of life, and carry the memory of history and the development and changes of society.
By learning, Xi understanding and applying these wisdoms, we can better understand nature and understand the true meaning of life more deeply.
In the face of natural phenomena such as winter thunderstorms, we should remain calm, use scientific methods to understand and deal with them, and take appropriate precautions.
At the same time, it is more important to understand that the so-calledThe "thunder and snow" event does not mean that there will be a major disaster, and we do not need to panic or be superstitious.
But then againThe real causes and mechanisms behind these strange weather phenomena are still being explored and studied by scientists.
Although we can understand and ** some common strange meteorologies at present, there are still many unknowns waiting for us to reveal.
However, I believe that in the future development of science, those unsolved mysteries about the weather will definitely beAppear in the public eye from a scientific point of view.
