What is the exact time of Grain Rain in 2018? Which season does Guyu belong to?
Compared with other festivals, Grain Rain may be relatively unfamiliar to everyone, but in fact, as the dividing line of seasons, Grain Rain plays a vital role to people. So what is the specific time of Grain Rain in 2018? The arrival of the third month of the lunar calendar means the end of spring and the beginning of summer. As the weather gets hotter, the Fortune Teller website lists for you the festivals and solar terms of the third month of the lunar calendar in 2018!What is the exact time of Grain Rain in 2018?The time of Grain Rain in 2018 is 23:27:30 on April 20, 2018 , which is Friday, the fifth day of the third month in the lunar calendar.Grain Rain occurs on April 20 or 21 every year when the sun reaches 30° of the ecliptic longitude. The period around Grain Rain is a great time for sowing crops. Appropriate amount of rain is beneficial to the greening and jointing of overwintering crops and the sowing and germination of spring-sown crops. Farmers should seize the favorable opportunity to carry out spring farming production. Is Guyu in spring or summer?Guyu belongs to the spring season;Grain Rain is the sixth solar term of the twenty-four solar terms and the last solar term of spring. Guyu means "rain brings forth all kinds of grains" and it occurs when the sun reaches 30° of the ecliptic longitude on April 20 or 21 every year. It is also the best time to sow seeds, transplant seedlings, and plant melons and beans. The solar term before Guyu is Qingming, and the next solar term is Lixia. Climate characteristics of GuyuSpring Drought <br /> The Huaihe River Basin is a transitional area between the spring rains in the south of the Yangtze River and the spring droughts in the north. From the Qinling Mountains and the Huaihe River to the north, the spring rains decrease sharply. As the saying goes, "There is often a lack of rain during Qingming and Guyu," which means that there is a shortage of rain during these two solar terms. During the Grain Rain period, people in Hainan Island, western Sichuan, western Guangxi, Northwest China, and North China are more eager for rain. In normal years, there are many sunny days, strong sunshine, great evaporation, much wind and sand, and dry air. Rain at this time is as precious as oil.Severe convective weather <br /> Generally speaking, April to August is the peak period of severe convective weather in a year. As May approaches, localized disastrous weather conditions such as thunderstorms, hail, strong winds, tornadoes, etc. will increase significantly in many areas in the south. Lightning protection, hail protection and wind protection are put on the agenda. Heavy rain <br /> When the Grain Rain solar term arrives, it often starts to rain more in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the south of the Yangtze River. Especially in southern China, once cold air meets warm and humid air, it often forms a long period of rainfall, and it enters the annual pre-flood season. Severe convective weather wrapped in clouds and rain will not only bring disasters such as hail and thunderstorms, but some will also be accompanied by short-term, localized heavy rain or extremely heavy rain. The 24-hour rainfall may reach more than 300 or 400 mm, causing rivers to overflow and serious waterlogging, while longer heavy rain will also trigger disasters such as mudslides and landslides. |
