What are the climatic characteristics of the Rain Water solar term?

Rainwater is the second solar term among the 24 solar terms, which falls around the fifteenth 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.
Rainwater is the second solar term among the 24 solar terms. Around the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year (February 18-20 in the Gregorian calendar), when the sun's ecliptic longitude reaches 330 degrees, it is the Rain Water of the twenty-four solar terms. At this time, the temperature rises, the ice and snow melt, and the precipitation increases, so it is named Rainwater. The Rain Water solar term generally starts on February 18 or 19 of the Gregorian calendar and ends on March 4 or 5. Rainwater, like Grain Rain, Light Snow and Heavy Snow, is a solar term that reflects precipitation phenomena.
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.
Rain not only indicates the beginning of rainfall and the increase in rainfall, but also indicates the rise in temperature. Before the rain, the weather is relatively cold. After the rain, people can clearly feel that spring has returned to the earth, flowers are blooming and the world is full of spring, and the refreshing breath inspires the body and mind.
During the Rain Water solar term, the ground's moisture gradually rises, and dew and frost appear in the mornings. Therefore, in view of such climatic characteristics, dietary adjustments should focus on regulating the spleen and stomach and dispelling wind and dampness. Because the climate is relatively cold at this time, you can take appropriate supplements. Honey, dates, yam, white fungus, etc. are all suitable supplements for this solar term. 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.
During the rainy season, the weather is changeable and it is one of the seasons with the most cold waves throughout the year. The sudden changes in temperature, warm and cold weather are very harmful to the growth of crops, forests, fruits, etc. that have sprouted and turned green, as well as people's health. While paying attention to protecting crops, greenhouse vegetables, and industrial and transportation departments from cold and frost, we should still pay attention to personal health care to prevent the occurrence of epidemic diseases such as colds in late winter and early spring.
With the arrival of the Rain Water solar term, the weather with flying snowflakes and bone-chilling cold air gradually disappears, and the spring breeze blows, the ice and snow melt, and the days of moist air, gentle sunshine and drizzle are coming to us.
