What does Huangmeitian mean?

From mid-June to mid-July every year, in the early summer, there will be continuous rainy weather in the Jianghuai area in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, just when plums mature and turn yellow, so it is called "Meiyu" or "Huangmeitian". Meiyu mainly occurs in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, south-central Japan and South Korea, which is a unique weather and climate phenomenon in East Asia.

In some years, the Meiyu belt will move northward and then return to the Jianghuai basin to maintain relative stability, which is customarily called "inverted Huangmei". After the meiyu in Jianghuai basin ended, the rain belt moved to North China, and the Jianghuai basin entered high temperature and little rain. Meteorologically, the beginning and ending time of plum rain are called "entering plum" (or "standing plum") and "leaving plum" (or "breaking plum") respectively.

Matters needing attention of Huang Meitian:

1, dress dry and not greedy for cold: clothes should be washed and changed frequently in rainy days, and it is best to choose clothes that are easy to level and smooth for the time being. In an air-conditioned room, put on a sleeveless shirt and protect your shoulders; Pants, cover your knees. Even if it is hot, remember to put a small blanket and a thin quilt when you sleep at night.

2, the diet is nutritious: food in the rainy season is prone to rancidity or mildew, so in addition to drinking more water, fruits, vegetables, melons, fresh meat and eggs can not be less. Don't eat too much cold drinks and food.

3, travel sunscreen needs hydration: prepare sunscreen products before going out during the day, such as umbrellas, sun hats, sunglasses, etc. Avoid exercising in the sun at noon and bring salt soda or green tea when you go out. After dinner in the evening, relax, exercise properly and walk slowly.
