The heavy snow in the south of the Yangtze River has never been seen, and this year is Yan Ning.
The ancients said: "The big one, Sheng also, so far and the snow is sheng". At this time, the snow tends to fall heavily and widely, hence the name heavy snow. At this time, the minimum temperature in most parts of the country dropped to 0 or below.
Often, in areas where cold and warm air collide at the front of strong cold air, heavy snowfall and even heavy snowfall. It can be seen that the heavy snow solar term indicates the beginning time and the amount of snow during this period, and it is the same as the solar terms such as light snow, rain, and valley rain, which are all solar terms that directly reflect precipitation.
It is often said that "the snow is a good year". In severe winter, snow covers the earth, which can keep the temperature on the ground and around the crops from falling very low due to cold snaps, creating a good wintering environment for winter crops. When the snow melts, it increases the soil moisture content, which can be used for the spring growth of crops. In addition, the nitride content of snow water is 5 times that of ordinary rainwater, and it also has a certain effect of fertilizing fields. Therefore, there is a agricultural proverb that "this year's wheat cover is three-layered, and the next year you will sleep with steamed buns".
During the heavy snow season, people should pay attention to the forecast of the meteorological station for strong cold air and low temperature, and pay attention to cold protection and warmth. Effective measures should be taken for overwintering crops to prevent frost damage. Pay attention to the freezing and warmth of livestock.
Wait for the crane to not sing
The bird is a kind of bird, because the weather is so cold in this solar term, the birds in the sky and the animals on the ground are nowhere to be seen, and even the cold trumpet birds are no longer chirping.
This statement comes from many classics, such as the "Book of Birds" and the "Hanshu Yinyi", which says: "Bird, Yi Bird also." Like a pheasant and big, with hairy horns, the dead side rests, the ancients took it as a warrior, and the name can be known. "Piya" cloud: "Yellow and black, so it is called Quay." According to this, the yang bird does not sing at the extremes of the six yin. Ruo Guo Pu's "Dialect": "Like a chicken, winter **, day and night, that is, a cold bug." Chen Lan and Fang's are also called the birds of the Dan, but they are not either. The night is ringing, why is it not singing?"Dan Lead Yulu" as "鴈, I'm afraid not." "Huainanzi" is a squid, and "Poem" is a thirsty dan.
The second is the beginning of the tiger
At this time, the yin energy is at its peak, the so-called prosperity and decline, the yang energy has sprouted, and the tiger has begun to have courtship behavior. Tigers belong to the beasts of prey. In the "Materia Medica", it is recorded that "it can avoid evil charms, and now it feels slightly yang, and it is very beneficial, so it is intersecting with each other." "That's where this phenological phenomenon comes from.

Materia Medica" is called Li, which is actually horse shallot. Zheng Kangcheng, Cai Yong, and Gao Lu are all cloud and horse, and the cloud of "Shuowen": Lili is like a pu and small, and the roots can be brushed, which is the same as "Materia Medica". However, Chen Lan is injected as vanilla, and those who agree with it think that Lingling is incense, but they don't know that Lingling incense was born in March.

As soon as the heavy snow season arrives, every household is busy pickling "salty goods". Whether it's poultry or seafood, the traditional preparation method is to process fresh ingredients into aromatic delicacies to welcome the upcoming New Year. The Xi of heavy snow cured meat is the same as the origin of firecrackers, which is related to the year beast. "Nian" is a fierce monster with sharp horns, which lives deep at the bottom of the sea for many years, but every Chinese New Year's Eve, it will climb ashore to hurt people. In order to avoid injury, people stay at home at the end of each year, so they come up with a way to marinate and store meat, and fresh vegetables are stored by air-drying.
