What do snow and thunder portend?

It thunders on snowy days, which is a natural phenomenon called "thunder and rain". Among the people, this weather phenomenon is considered as a bad phenomenon.

There is a folk saying that "thunder and rain, people eat iron", "thunderstorm and winter, ten cowshed and nine empty", which means that thunder and rain are the manifestations of extreme weather and may affect the next year's harvest, in order to tell the villagers that they need to take more precautions.

This is because when it thunders in winter, it usually means that warm and humid air is very active and cold air is also very strong. In this weather condition, the weather usually becomes very cold, and there will be more snow and ice. Therefore, people think that this strange natural phenomenon indicates that the coming year will be a year without harvest, or even a year without harvest, and people may face the dilemma of having no food to eat.

Matters needing attention in "thunder and snow" weather:

1. Pay attention to safety: As this weather phenomenon may be accompanied by strong convective weather, you should try to avoid standing high or near trees, telephone poles and other objects that may be struck by lightning when outdoors.

2. Avoid using electrical equipment: In lightning weather, using electrical equipment may be risky. Therefore, electrical equipment, especially outdoor electrical equipment, should be avoided as much as possible in lightning weather.

3. Pay attention to the weather forecast: In the "thunderstorm, rain and snow" weather, we should pay close attention to the weather forecast in order to keep abreast of the latest weather conditions and early warning information.

4. Pay attention to traffic safety: Because this weather phenomenon may be accompanied by snowfall and fog, you should pay attention to traffic safety and avoid driving on icy roads or in poor visibility.
