First, the rain season is tight, and it is dry in spring; "The south wind is not in a hurry, it will fall into spring", this is a common saying, that is, when the rain is in season, the south wind is very strong and blows more, which means that in the future spring, there will be drought, or even spring; On the contrary, in the process of rainfall, if the south wind is not strong and the south wind is less, there is a possibility of "anti-spring", that is, the climate becomes cold, and the probability of inverted spring cold is greater, which is not conducive to the growth of crops and should be prevented.
Second, there is wind after the rain, cool to May, this is a common saying in Henan, refers to at this time, if it rains, there is a strong wind, there is a heavy rain, it may be cold until the middle of May, which means that there is a cold spring, which is not conducive to the growth of crops. Third, the rain is not cold, the cold to the mangs, this saying is that when it rains, the sky is not cold, which means that it will be cool for a period of time, and this state will continue after the solar terms of the mangs. Conversely, during the rainy season, the weather gets hotter, which means that spring and summer will begin, and the weather will be warmer.
