What is the temperature during the Rain Water solar term in 2019?

Rain Water falls around the 15th day of the first lunar month every year (February 18-20 in the Gregorian calendar), and the solar term starts from the Rain Water day and ends before the Waking of Insects Day (March 4-5 in the Gregorian calendar). The sun's direct point is gradually approaching the equator from the southern hemisphere. At this time in the northern hemisphere, the hours and intensity of sunshine are increasing, the temperature is rising rapidly, the warm and humid air from the ocean is starting to become active and is gradually advancing northward. At the same time, the cold air is not willing to be outdone in the weakening trend and is frequently competing with the warm air, neither willing to withdraw from the dominant position nor to give up the remaining coldness.
The Rain Water solar term marks the beginning of spring in meteorological terms. After the "Rain Water", the temperature in most parts of China has risen to above 0℃. The average daily temperature in the Huanghuai Plain has reached about 3℃, the average temperature in Jiangnan is around 5℃, the temperature in South China is above 10℃, and the average temperature in North China is still below 0℃.
The rain started and the amount of rain increased gradually. The meaning of the Rain Water solar term is the beginning of rainfall and the gradual increase in rainfall. In the Yellow River Basin, the origin of the 24 solar terms, the weather is cold before the Rain Water, but snowflakes can be seen flying and the sound of rain can hardly be heard; after the Rain Water, the temperature generally rises to above 0 ℃, the snow gradually decreases and the rain gradually increases. However, in the southern region with a warm climate, rainfall is not uncommon even in the dead of winter. During this period, the average temperature in most parts of southern my country is above 10℃, peach and plum buds are in bloom, and cherry flowers are in full bloom, indicating that we have indeed entered spring in terms of climate. Except for a few years, the frost season ends here. Now is the right time to graft fruit trees and plant trees. South China is often hit by spring droughts after winter droughts, especially in western South China where "spring rain is as precious as oil." In addition, cold waves can cause severe temperature drops and snowstorms, which are extremely harmful to old, weak and young animals. All of these require special prevention.

What to eat during the Rain Water solar term?

1. Pea sprouts Pea sprouts are pea seedlings when they have 2 to 4 cotyledons. They are fresh, tender and fragrant, and are most suitable for making soup. The nutritional value of bean sprouts is roughly the same as that of peas. The young leaves of pea pods and bean sprouts are rich in vitamin C and enzymes that can break down nitrosamines in the body, and have anti-cancer and cancer prevention effects. The substances contained in bean sprouts such as gibberellin, gibberellin and phytolectin have the functions of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory and enhancing metabolism. Pea sprouts are rich in fiber, which can prevent constipation and have a bowel-cleansing effect. Pea sprouts also contain a lot of calcium, vitamin B, C and carotene.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that bean sprouts are cool and slightly cold in nature, and have a heat-clearing effect. Eating them in spring can clear away heat and fire, and also help make the skin smooth and soft. In addition, bean sprouts are also helpful in eliminating edema.
2. Spring bamboo shoots are known as the "best vegetarian food" in the south and have been loved by people since ancient times. For example, Shanghai people like to eat "wolfberry and spring bamboo shoots", Nanjing people like to eat "spring bamboo shoots and chicken", and Zhejiang people like to eat "Southern meat and spring bamboo shoots". 3. Shepherd's purse has been a very popular wild vegetable since ancient times. In many places in my country, there is a custom of eating shepherd's purse and boiled eggs on the third day of the third lunar month. Some people also collect a large amount of shepherd's purse on this day, dry it, and keep it for frequent consumption by boiling in water. Some people start picking shepherd's purse as soon as it sprouts tender leaves in March, saying that this vegetable can cure all diseases and is very beneficial to the body, so they call it "life-protecting grass." Therefore, the proverb says: "On the third day of March, shepherd's purse is a panacea."
4. Chives : Due to the changeable climate in spring, it is particularly important to maintain Yang energy. Chives, especially spring chives, are extremely rich in nutritional value and have the effects of invigorating the stomach, refreshing the mind, strengthening the kidneys and protecting yang.
5. Millet : The ancients believed that "millet soup is better than ginseng soup", which shows the high nutritional value of millet. For the elderly, the weak, the sick and postpartum women, millet can be said to be the most ideal nourishing product. The same weight of millet contains twice as much iron as rice, 1.5-3.5 times as much vitamin B1, 1 times as much vitamin B2, and 2-7 times as much fiber as rice.
