1, meteorological proverb

Refers to folk words about forecasting weather changes. For thousands of years, human beings have been trying to make accurate weather forecasts. Weather proverbs are proverbs summed up by working people's oral notes and history, which are used to indicate whether it will be sunny or stormy tomorrow.

"It's cloudy in the first month, with stars in February, thunder in March and April, rainy in May, sunny in June, windy in July and August, frost and snow in September, and cold wave festival in November and December." "One fog and three sunny days, and the fog will blow for three days." "The sky is full of clouds, and it keeps raining and snowing." "The branches of magpies call, and it will be sunny when you go out."

"There is no dew on windy nights and no frost on cloudy nights." These humorous rhymes were written by different authors in different years, which predicted the climate change all the year round and the weather changes with the surrounding things. Although it is not necessarily true, it provides a more reliable forecast of weather changes for people to prepare.

2. The scope of application of meteorological proverbs

The region with moderate latitude on the earth, about 30 to 60 degrees north latitude or 30 to 60 degrees south latitude, is the main activity area of human beings. In these places, the weather changes obviously, and the same climate will not last for many years. Today is a wet sunny day, and tomorrow may be a cold thunderstorm.

Meteorological Proverb (10) Although many people in the world live in the equatorial zone, the climate in this zone will not change obviously in many cases. For example, the Sahara desert is hot and dry all year round, while the Indian subcontinent and the western Pacific are rainy all year round, and the weather changes little during the day.

Therefore, the weather proverbs in the Chinese world are mainly applicable to areas with moderate latitudes, because the climate changes there are obvious. However, the applicability of weather proverbs may be different in different regions. For example, the sun rises in the east and the rain falls in the west, because most of China is in the westerlies. If there is a rainbow in the west, it means that it is already cloudy and rainy in the west, and it will soon move eastward and rain. If there is a rainbow in the east, it means that the cloud and rain belt has moved away and sunny days are coming.
