When will the Rain Water fall in 2017? What are the climate characteristics in different regions?
Introduction: The Rain Water solar term is one of our 24 solar terms, and it also signifies the arrival of precipitation. In spring, the ice and snow melt and all things come back to life. “Good rain knows when to fall, and it occurs in spring. It sneaks into the night with the wind, moistening everything silently.” So, when is the Rain Water solar term in 2017, and what are the climate characteristics of different regions? Let’s follow the editor to find out. The first month of the lunar calendar is the beginning of spring, and there are beautiful festivals everywhere in this month. Mr. Shui Mo lists these traditional Chinese festivals and customs for you one by one.When does the Rain Water solar term start in 2017?February 18, 2017, Saturday, the 22nd Saturday of the first lunar month (small month) in the lunar calendar, is Rain Water, the second solar term among the 24 solar terms, located around the 15th day of the first lunar month every year (February 18-20 in the Gregorian calendar). The sun reaches 330° ecliptic longitude. On this day, married daughters usually go home to visit their parents and give their mothers a piece of red silk and a pot of stewed meat.Climate characteristics of different regions during the Rain Water solar termThis year's Rain Water solar term starts on February 18 and ends on March 5. 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 atmospheric circulation is in the adjustment stage at this time, and the climate characteristics across the country generally tend to transition from the coldness of late winter to the warmth of early spring. 1. The middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River (North China) If we say in these areas that "Lichun" is the first movement of spring, the "sonata": the beginning of spring and the chill of spring. After the rain, we enter the second movement of spring, "Variations": the temperature rises, and it becomes cold and warm at the same time. During the Rain Water period, "the river opens in July and the wild geese come in August and the wild geese come", a scene of late winter and early spring. At this time, the confrontation between cold and warm air no longer brings a sudden drop in temperature and flying snowflakes, but the arrival of spring breeze and rain. At this time, the average temperature in this area has risen above 0℃, and even the extreme maximum temperature during the day can reach over 20℃. The conditions for snowfall are no longer there. Even if our ancestors named the first spring rain "Rain Water", it is appropriate. During the rainy season, wheat enters the greening stage, and at this time the wheat has a higher requirement for water. The rainfall at this time is the least in the whole year. From the "China Surface Climate Data from 1971 to 2000", we calculated that the average rainfall in Shijiazhuang, Taiyuan and Beijing in February was only 7.4, 5.2 and 4.9 mm respectively. It can be said that "spring rain is as precious as oil." 2. During the Rain Water solar term in the northwest and northeast regions, my country's northwest and northeast regions have not yet emerged from the winter realm. Judging from the average temperature in February: the monthly average temperatures in Lanzhou, Xining, Urumqi and Shenyang are -1.0℃, -3.9℃, -9.7℃ and -6.9℃ respectively. It can be seen that these places have not yet escaped from the cold winter, the weather is still mainly cold, and the precipitation is mainly snow. 3. During the rainy season in the southwest and south of the Yangtze River, except for the southern part of Yunnan where spring is in full bloom, most places in the southwest and south of the Yangtze River are still in the early spring season: warm sunlight, cold and damp mornings and evenings, green fields, and warm spring river water. According to the standard for dividing the four seasons: spring begins when the daily average temperature is ≥10℃-≤22℃ for 5 consecutive days. Generally speaking, the real "spring" in these places does not arrive until late March, which is one month later during the "vernal equinox". But there are also special cases. For example, in 2004, Wuhan entered real spring on February 10, Changsha on February 11, Nanchang on February 11, and Nanjing on February 13, which was a full month earlier. 4. During the Rain Water solar term in South China, South China is full of spring and flowers are in full bloom. The multi-year average temperature in February in the following cities in South China is: 14.5℃ in Guangzhou, 14.1℃ in Nanning, and 18.7℃ in Haikou, Hainan Island; the average precipitation in February in the above cities is: 69.4 mm, 42.6 mm, and 35.0 mm respectively. Although the rainfall is several times more than that in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, there is still a shortage of water due to the high temperature and large evaporation. Especially in southern South China and parts of Hainan Island, the rainfall during this period is still relatively small and spring droughts often occur. If affected by strong cold air and the average temperature is lower than 10℃, it will be very unfavorable for the cultivation of early rice seedlings.
