What does it mean when thunder strikes before the Waking of Insects?

From the perspective of folklore, the idea that thunder before Jingzhe is connected to the weather has also been confirmed. Folklore experts introduced: "Proverbs are derived from summarizing agricultural work and daily life observations, and they embody folk wisdom. If we compare them, we will find that they are very accurate. In addition, there are sayings among the people that "before thunder on the Waking of Insects, there will be no sky for 42 days" and "if there is thunder before the Waking of Insects, it will rain one day and clear the next day". In the fishing industry, there is also a proverb that "on the Waking of Insects, mantis shrimps will grow on the Grain in Ear shrimps". According to our experience, thunder on the Waking of Insects day is not uncommon, but it is rare before that."
"When spring thunder sounds, all things grow." The Jingzhe season is the perfect "Nine Nines" of sunny days, with rising temperatures and more rainfall. Except for the Northeast and Northwest regions which are still covered in snow in winter, the average temperature in most parts of my country has risen above 0℃. The average daily temperature in North China is 3-6℃, the Jiangnan region along the Yangtze River is above 8℃, and the Southwest and South China have reached 10-15℃. It has already been spring.
"Spring thunder scares away all insects." Warm climatic conditions are conducive to the occurrence and spread of various diseases and pests. Weeds in the field also sprout one after another. Pest and disease control and inter-row cultivation and weeding should be carried out in time. As the saying goes, when peach blossoms bloom, swine fever comes. We should also pay attention to the prevention and control of poultry and livestock diseases. At this time, the temperature rises rapidly and spring thunder has gradually been heard in most areas of the Yangtze River Basin. In most parts of southern my country, it rains all year round and the first thunder of spring can be heard during the Waking of Insects. However, in the northwest of North China, except for a few years, thunder usually does not occur until the Qingming Festival. This is the latest region in most parts of southern my country where thunderstorms start.

Climate characteristics of Jingzhe solar term:

The weather is warm and cold at this time of year. As the weather gets warmer and spring thunder appears, we will slowly say goodbye to the cold winter. Thunder sounds before Jingzhe, and the clouds do not clear for 49 days. Jingzhe is a time of sudden changes in temperature, with rapid climate changes, so there is a saying "Cold Jingzhe, warm Spring Equinox". "If the north wind blows during the Jingzhe solar term, winter will start all over again." "If the south wind blows during the Jingzhe solar term, the rice seedlings will be planted late." The wind during the Jingzhe solar term can be used to predict whether the weather will be cold or warm in the future. Judging from the climate characteristics, the temperature rises significantly after Jingzhe, and it is the solar term with the fastest temperature rise throughout the year. Although the climate is getting warmer at this time, it is still cold and gloomy, with more rainfall, frequent cold air visits, and a large temperature difference between morning, evening and noon.
