As the saying goes, "thunder in the first month is a heap, and wheat in February is a heap"? Is it accurate?

Farmers' harvest depends on the weather. Good weather, good year, bad weather and bad harvest. Therefore, for thousands of years, farmers have paid special attention to the weather, especially some special astronomical phenomena, which are the key observation objects. For example, people have made a lot of observations on when and what it thunders, recorded the impact on agricultural production after thundering, summed it up with one or two well-known proverbs and passed it on to future generations.

Like us, when it thunders in the first month and February, people often say that people will pile up when it thunders in the first month, and wheat will pile up when it thunders in February. What does this mean?

1, the thunder people got together in the first month.

In the first month, the weather is still cold and the climate is dry. In such weather conditions, it usually doesn't thunder. Because only when the weather becomes warm and humid, such as February 2, or June, when the dragon looks up, will it thunder. Therefore, when it thunders in the first month, the older generation will feel that it is not a good thing, and this year's harvest will go wrong. What is the actual situation? The thunder in the first month indicates that the weather has become warmer and wetter in advance. Insects that should have been frozen to death in winter will escape this difficulty, wake up early, breed in a warm and humid environment, and then affect the growth of crops in spring and summer, resulting in poor harvest. There were no pesticides or insecticides in ancient times. Many times, we can only watch the crops being ruined, unable to harvest food, and starving in autumn and winter.

2. Lei Mai Dui in February.

On February 2nd, the dragon looked up. I don't know if you have noticed that every February, there will be a thunderbolt. This is a normal phenomenon, indicating that winter and spring have been successfully handed over, and the weather is getting warmer and wetter, naturally it is easy to thunder and there is more rain. Rain at this time, in the eyes of farmers, is more expensive than oil, because winter wheat is in a critical period of turning green at this time. If there is enough rain, it will thrive and have a good harvest. In the eyes of the ancients, these spring rains were brought by thunder in February, so thunder in February was a good omen in people's eyes, so there was a saying that "thunder in February, wheat piles".

This proverb is usually circulated in the north, but rarely spoken in the south. One is that spring comes early in the south, and the weather becomes warmer and wetter. Thunder in the first month is not unusual, and its impact on crops is limited. The second is the problem of this sentence itself. How do you say it thundered and piled wheat in February? You know, rice is generally grown in the south, and wheat is rarely grown.
