Is it very hot in 2019? Which month is it?
Ancient books record that "When the Big Dipper points to Bing, it is the Great Heat, and the weather is much hotter than the Lesser Heat, so it is called the Great Heat." So is the Great Heat of 2019 very hot? Which month does it occur in? The sixth lunar month of 2019 also ushered in summer. Follow Mr. Shui Mo's website and we will accompany you through a hot summer.Is the Great Heat of 2019 very hot?The Great Heat solar term falls around the middle of the three hottest days of summer, which is the hottest period of the year with the highest temperature and the fastest growth of crops. At the same time, various meteorological disasters such as drought, flood and wind disasters are also most frequent in many areas.Everyone knows that “the hottest time of the year is during the dog days”. The Great Heat usually falls in the middle stage of the three hottest days. At this time, most parts of our country are in the hottest period of the year, and the temperature difference across the country is not large. It coincides with the proverb: "It's coldest in the 39th day of winter and hottest in the 5th day of summer." Compared with Lesser Heat, Greater Heat, as the name suggests, is hotter. "Tongwei Xiaojing Yuanshenqi" states: "Fifteen days after the Lesser Heat, the Big Heat is in the middle of June. The Small Heat and the Big Heat are divided into Big and Small in the extreme heat. The Small Heat is after the beginning of the heat and the Big Heat is after the full moon." The Great Heat is divided into three phases: "The first phase is when rotten grass turns into fireflies; the second phase is when the soil becomes moist and the heat becomes sultry; the third phase is when heavy rains come." The first phase is that rotten grass turns into fireflies: There are more than 2,000 species of fireflies in the world, divided into two types: aquatic and terrestrial. Terrestrial fireflies lay eggs on dead grass. During the Great Heat, the fireflies hatch from their eggs, so the ancients believed that fireflies were transformed from rotten grass. The second phase is when the weather starts to get hot and humid, and the land is also very moist; The third sign is that there will be heavy rains from time to time: The third sign is that there will be heavy thunderstorms from time to time. These heavy rains will reduce the summer heat and humidity, and the weather will begin to transition to the beginning of autumn.

Eat lychees to celebrate the great summer heat in Putian, Fujian People in Putian, Fujian have the custom of eating lychees, mutton and rice dregs during the Great Heat season, which is called "Guo Dashu". Lychees contain glucose and multiple vitamins and are rich in nutritional value, so eating fresh lychees can nourish the body. First soak the fresh lychees in cold well water, and then take them out and taste them when the hottest time of the year arrives. Eating lychees at this moment is the most comfortable and nourishing. Therefore, some people say that eating lychees during the Great Heat has the same nutritional value as eating ginseng. 4. Eating “immortal grass” during the Great Heat in Guangdong In many places in Guangdong, there is a custom of "eating fairy grass" during the Great Heat season. Grass jelly, also known as jelly grass and fairy grass, is an herbaceous plant of the genus Grass jelly in the family Lamiaceae and is an important plant resource for both medicinal and edible purposes.

The stems and leaves can be dried and made into grass jelly, which is called jelly in Guangdong and is a summer dessert. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck."
