The Spring Festival of 2024 is called the "sloppy year" by some elderly people, what does this title really mean? Before we get started, let's understand the background meaning of the word "sloppy years". In the northern regions, sloppy is a colloquial expression that usually means untidy, untidy, and dirty. In the past, roads in rural areas were mud roads, and during the Chinese New Year, especially during visiting relatives and friends, people had to go out, which led to a mess in their homes. Therefore, such a year is described as a "sloppy year".
The reason why the Spring Festival in 2024 is called the "sloppy year" can be traced back to the proverb of the ancestors. Our ancestors have long been accustomed to using these proverbs to ** the weather, so they ** the weather during the Chinese New Year in 2024 in advance. Their judgment is based on these ancestral proverbs, so let's take a look at them.
1. "Clean winter solstice sloppy year, sloppy winter solstice clean year".
This proverb is very widely spread in our country, and there are different sayings in different places, but the meaning is almost the same. It means that if the day of the winter solstice is sunny, or if there is little rain and snow during the entire winter solstice, then there will be more rain and snow during the Spring Festival. On the contrary, if there is more rain and snow during the winter solstice, then during the Spring Festival, the weather will be mainly sunny, suitable for visiting relatives and friends. There are similar sayings, such as "sunny winter solstice rain for the New Year, rain winter solstice sunny for the New Year", and "winter solstice dark, New Year sparse; The winter solstice is sparse, and the New Year is dark". They all mean drought and little rain during the winter solstice, and more rain and snow during the Spring Festival; During the winter solstice, there is a lot of rain and snow, and the weather is sunny during the Spring Festival.
During this year's winter solstice, most areas were sunny and warm, and temperatures were even higher than usual in many places. According to the proverb, some elderly people think that there may be more rain during the Spring Festival this year, and there will even be snowfall.
2. "Dry winter wet year, wet winter dry year".
Some people may find this proverb a little confused. Actually, "winter" here does not refer to the winter solstice, but to the whole winter. It means that if the whole winter is dry and there is little rain and snow, then there will be more rain and snow during the Spring Festival, and it will be wet everywhere. On the contrary, if there is more rain and snow in winter, then the weather will be mainly sunny during the Spring Festival.
At present, winter is coming to an end, and the beginning of spring is about to be ushered in, which means the arrival of spring. However, based on the previous weather conditions, we can see that there is not much rain and snow in this winter. Although it snowed in many parts of the south, it came and went in a hurry, and there was relatively little rainfall. Therefore, based on this judgment, some elderly people believe that the weather during the Spring Festival this year may have more rain and even snowfall.
So, based on the latest weather forecast data, what should we expect from the weather for the Spring Festival in 2024?
Starting from the night of the 30th of this month, the eastern part of Northwest China, North China, Huanghuai and Northeast China will usher in a range of snowfall, of which there may be moderate to heavy snow in southern Hebei, southern Shanxi, and northern Shandong. And the Spring Festival of 2024 will begin on February 10, and experts may have several rounds of cold wave transit, resulting in significant cooling, rainfall and even snowfall and freezing weather. At this time, there is still some time before the Spring Festival, and the weather is also difficult, so we don't have to worry too much.
However, we still need to pay close attention to the approaching weather forecast, plan our trips wisely, and be wary of the adverse effects of snow and ice on the roads on transportation. Especially if you are traveling by car, you should slow down and ensure safety.
In the northern region, the rainy and snowy period during the Spring Festival is traditionally referred to as the "sloppy year", which is due to the dirty environment caused by muddy rural roads. According to the proverb passed down from the ancestors, there may be rainy and snowy weather during the Spring Festival in 2024. Proverbs include "clean winter solstice sloppy year, sloppy winter solstice clean year" and "dry winter wet year, wet winter dry year", expressing the idea of relying on the winter solstice weather to ** Spring Festival weather. However, weather** is inaccurate and specific weather conditions may vary based on geographic location and other factors. Therefore, we need to pay attention to the weather forecast and take appropriate measures to ensure safe travel.
