Extended data

The arrival of the winter solstice solar terms marks the beginning of the cold winter. On this day, although the northern hemisphere gets the least solar radiation, it is about 50% less than the southern hemisphere. However, this is not the coldest time, so-called "cold on March 9, frozen on April 9". This is because there is atmosphere and water on the surface of the earth, which can store heat, not "storage or loss", but "accumulation of heat"

Therefore, the weather before winter solstice is usually not very cold. From winter to the future, although the solar altitude angle gradually increases, it is a slow recovery process, and the heat lost every day is still greater than the heat received, showing a situation of "making ends meet".

On "March 9th, April 9th", the accumulated heat is the least, the temperature is the lowest, and the weather is getting colder and colder. At this time, if there is the influence of cold air, the weather is even colder. After this "cold front", the weather will gradually get warmer.
