1, the characteristics of the light summer solar terms

Starting from July 7th or 8th of the Gregorian calendar every year, it is a slight summer heat when the sun reaches105. Literally speaking, "summer heat" means "heat", which means that the climate is hot during the summer heat. In the almanac, yue:

"Dou refers to Xin as a slight summer heat, and the weather in Sri Lanka is already hot and has not yet reached the extreme, hence the name."

In other words, although the weather is very hot at this time, it is not yet the hottest time, so it is called "light summer heat".

A mild summer heat is a mild heat. In ancient China, the summer heat was divided into three periods:

"A warm wind; The second waiting for the cricket to live in the space: the third waiting for the eagle to start. "

In the summer, there is no longer a cool breeze on the earth, but all the winds carry heat waves; Because of the heat, the cricket left the field and went to the corner of the courtyard to escape the heat; In this solar term, the eagle moves in the cool high air because of the high temperature on the ground. In the light summer, the plum rains in the Jianghuai basin will soon end, and the temperature will rise in midsummer, and it will enter the summer drought period. However, North China and Northeast China will enter the rainy season, and tropical cyclones will be active frequently, and the number of tropical cyclones landing in China will begin to increase. In a word, the climate characteristics of the solar terms in the light summer are hot weather and increased rainfall.

2. What is a little summer heat?

LesserHeat is the eleventh solar term of the twenty-four solar terms, and it is also the end of the afternoon month and the beginning of the month. On July 7th or 8th of every year in Gregorian calendar, it is considered as a slight summer heat when the sun reaches105. Summer heat, which means hot, is a small heat, not very hot. It means that the weather is getting hot, but it is not the hottest yet, and most parts of the country are basically in line with it. Crops all over the country have entered the stage of vigorous growth, and field management needs to be strengthened.

3. Weather conditions in the light summer.

The average temperature in southern China is about 33℃ during the light summer. In mid-July, the average daily temperature is higher than 30℃ and the maximum daily temperature is higher than 35℃ in the low-altitude valley area of southeast China. In the northern part of the northwest plateau, frost and snow can still be seen at this time, which is equivalent to the scene in early spring in South China.

Since the beginning of the summer heat, the plum rains in the Jianghuai basin have ended successively, and the southeast monsoon rainy season from the Pacific Ocean has begun in the vast areas north of the Huaihe River and Qinling Mountains in the east, with a significant increase in precipitation and relatively concentrated rainfall. South China, Southwest China and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are also in the southwest monsoon rainy season from the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea. The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are generally hot and rainy under the control of subtropical high.
