The dawn of March 3 will open the prelude to the special day of the twenty-third day of the first lunar month - the first day of the end of the ninety-nine cold. This day not only marks the melting of winter snow and the arrival of spring, but also means that farmers in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River are about to devote themselves to the busy and hopeful spring planting and sowing at the time of spring. For them, the 99 solar terms are like an idyllic poem that depicts the enthusiasm and joy of agricultural activities, and the vivid pictures such as mowing the grass and preparing the land, selecting seeds and raising seedlings, purchasing fertilizer and fertilizing, and irrigating and nourishing will be played in turn like a symphony under the rhythm of the 99 solar terms.
However, this year's 99 solar terms are covered with a veil of mystery, which is particularly unique and rare. It is rarely located between the two solar terms of "rain" and "sting", which causes the old people in the countryside to ponder: "This ninety-nine is really a wonder that has not been seen in 60 years." "It turns out that this year's Ninety-Nine is advanced to the middle of the first month, and such a schedule is indeed very rare. This makes people wonder what kind of temperature will this summer look like under such special climatic conditions. Can we get some glimpse with the help of an old meteorological proverb?
First of all, let's focus on the long-standing agricultural proverb: "The sky is clear and clear, and the peach blossoms and snow are flying to Xiaoman." Among them, the word "sunny" implies warm sunshine and hope; When people mention "March", they naturally think of that season when the peach blossoms are in full bloom; "Peach Blossom Snow" refers to the snowflakes falling from the sky when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, like a dancer dancing lightly, gently covering the petals to form a poetic picture. This proverb reveals such a rule: if the weather is clear and cloudless on the day of 99, then in the third month of the lunar calendar, it is very likely to encounter a sudden "inverted spring cold". At that time, the peach blossoms may be decorated with snowflakes to make them more beautiful, but the fruit trees may be harmed by this, and even the cold breath may continue after the miscanthus is planted, bringing uncertainty to agricultural production.
Next, we will read another widely circulated agricultural proverb: "Ninety-nine is a cold day, and the summer solstice is as hot as three dogs." The literal translation of this sentence means that if there is an abnormally low temperature on the day of Jiujiu, then in the summer solstice, the scorching heat and high temperature will be as severe as dog days. As we all know, the summer solstice and the dog days are the hottest and unbearable periods of the year, and the ancients said: "Count nine cold winter frozen land, and the three dog days in midsummer turn over." This sentence concisely summarizes the regular fluctuations in temperature changes during the winter and summer dog days. So, this agricultural proverb suggests that the weather conditions on the day of the 99th solar term may indicate how hot it will be at the summer solstice.
As this extraordinary solar term comes, we can't help but ask, will this summer be scorched by the scorching sun, or will the breeze be cool and pleasant? Perhaps, we can try to ** summer trend by observing the weather conditions on the day of 99. Although these agricultural proverbs are only a summary of the experience of the ancients and cannot accurately predict future climate change, they contain ancient wisdom and understanding of the laws of nature, which undoubtedly deepen our reverence for nature.
As the curtain of tomorrow's 99 solar terms slowly opens, we are full of expectations and longing to welcome the new season reincarnation. At the same time, we should also have a sense of reverence for nature, pay attention to every subtle change of solar terms, and cherish every gift of nature. In this ever-changing and unknown world, it is this awe and understanding of nature that leads us to find the code of harmonious coexistence with nature.
Finally, let's look forward to this coming summer, whether it is hot or cool as water, it is a precious gift from nature. While enjoying this gift, we do not forget to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the environment and caring for nature, and contribute to our shared home on earth.
