"Three Days in Charge" A Japanese landscape appears in Xilinhot, Inner Mongolia. When does this landscape usually appear?

On December 4 this year, a magical three-day sky appeared in the sky in Xilinhot City and Duolun County, Inner Mongolia. In fact, this scene is also called the Sun.

This natural phenomenon usually occurs more often in winter, because the most basic requirement for such a phenomenon to occur is the distribution of water vapor in the atmosphere.

This phenomenon may occur less frequently in other areas, but it is more common in Northeast China and Inner Mongolia in winter.

This phenomenon looks like there are three suns in the sky, distributed in the sky, giving people an illusion, and it is called the three-day sun.

In fact, this is because in the Northeast and Inner Mongolia regions after winter, after a heavy snowfall, the snow on the ground begins to slowly evaporate, and the water vapor reaches the atmosphere and no rain clouds are formed.

When it reaches the atmosphere, it has been consumed by the heat of the sun, so when this water vapor reaches the atmosphere, it forms a special environment like a rhombus mirror.

The sun shines in, and when it passes through the special mirror here, the sunlight is refracted back to the sky. People can see with the naked eye that it is like a sun growing two ears.

People on the ground cannot see the changes between the subtle water vapor, the atmosphere, and the sun, so when people first discovered this phenomenon, it was called the solar ear by the ancients.

As the name suggests, people feel that the sun has ears in the sky. The ancients gave this phenomenon this name.

The ancients worshiped and respected natural phenomena very much. The ancients knew little about natural phenomena, so the occurrence of this miraculous phenomenon was generally regarded as a warning from heaven to the world.

Nowadays, with the development of science and technology in society, people have begun to understand natural phenomena, and they are no longer surprised when they see such a common phenomenon.

In fact, this phenomenon is water vapor in the air. Heavy snow in winter stays for a long time, so there is a lot of water vapor in the air. It rises to the sky and becomes one with the atmosphere. After changing, it is refracted by the sun.

If you want to see this phenomenon, just go to the Northeast and Inner Mongolia. After all, there is snow in these two places in winter.
