Does the hot weather from winter solstice mean that the Spring Festival will be cold?

This is an old proverb handed down from generation to generation by our ancestors. If the winter solstice is sunny, it will definitely rain during the Spring Festival. If it is warm in winter, it will definitely get cold in the Spring Festival.

Therefore, in ancient times, people often used the weather conditions and solar terms of the winter solstice to further speculate on the weather in the later period. This speculation method may not be accurate, but it is indeed a valuable asset that has been circulating for a long time.

Extended data

In winter solstice, although the sun is low and the days are short, the temperature in winter solstice is not the lowest in meteorology. In fact, because there is still "accumulated heat" on the surface, it is usually not very cold before the winter solstice, and the real cold is after the winter solstice.

Winter solstice, also known as short day, short day, southern solstice and winter festival, winter solstice festival, Asian New Year, is both a solar term and a festival. The winter solstice is a solar term reflecting the direct sunlight movement. On the solstice of winter, the sun moves southward to the extreme, and the sun shines directly on the tropic of Capricorn, which is the place with the shortest day and the longest night in the northern hemisphere. From that day on, the direct sunlight point returned to the north, and the height of the sun in all parts of the northern hemisphere (China is located in the northern hemisphere) gradually increased, and the number of days also increased day by day.
