Which day of the summer solstice is longer?

During the summer solstice, the days north of the Tropic of Cancer are longer, the latitude of Mohe River is higher, and the days are longer during the summer solstice.

The solstice in summer is the turning point of the sun's northward movement. After the summer solstice, the direct point of the sun began to move south from the Tropic of Cancer, and the days in the northern hemisphere began to shorten gradually. For China, which is located to the north of the Tropic of Cancer, after the summer solstice, the height of the noon sun begins to decrease day by day.

For China, which is located in the south of the Tropic of Cancer, after the summer solstice, the height of the sun returned to the south at noon, and it began to decrease day by day after the sun shone again. High temperature, high humidity and occasional thunderstorms are the weather characteristics from summer to the future.

The summer solstice is in midsummer, that is, at noon, belonging to the sun; Although summer is full of yang and the daytime is the longest, it is not necessarily the hottest day of the year, so the heat near the surface is still accumulating and has not reached the maximum.

The summer solstice is not only one of the 24 solar terms, but also a festival in the ancient "four seasons and eight festivals". Since ancient times, people have the custom of worshipping gods and ancestors in the summer solstice. In addition, after the summer solstice, people generally drink Qingbuliang soup, herbal tea and sour plum soup to escape the heat.

Thundershower day

During the summer solstice, the temperature is high, the sunshine is sufficient, the crops grow rapidly, and the physiological and ecological water demand is high in most parts of China. At this time, the precipitation has a great influence on agricultural output, and there is a saying that "raindrops are worth tens of millions in summer solstice". At this time, the precipitation in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River can generally meet the needs of crop growth.

After the summer solstice, the ground is heated strongly and the air convection is strong, which is easy to form thunderstorms. This kind of hot thunderstorm comes and goes, and the rainfall range is small. Heavy rains may occur in some areas, which may easily lead to floods and even threaten people's lives and property. Attention should be paid to strengthening flood control.
