What month is autumn?

Autumn is from August 7-9 to165438+1October 7-8.

The beginning of autumn does not mean the end of hot weather. As the saying goes, "the summer heat is in dog days", according to the calculation method of "dog days", beginning of autumn is often in dog days until the summer heat, so the weather is still very hot in early autumn, and it will generally get cold after the Millennium solar terms. The watershed of summer heat is in autumn, not at the turn of summer and autumn. The climate in autumn is divided into two stages, the early autumn is sultry, and the climate tends to be dry and cool after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

According to the average climate temperature of modern scholar Zhang Baokun, there are four seasons in a year. The index is that the average temperature is lower than 10℃ in winter, higher than 22℃ in summer, and 10~22℃ in spring and autumn respectively.

The standard of average temperature in autumn adopted in meteorology is: after the intense summer heat, the average temperature for five days will be kept below 22℃, that is, it will enter autumn, and when it is lower than 10℃, it will end in autumn (average temperature: 0: 00, 6: 00, 12, 18) and enter autumn.

Extended data:

Autumn is the harvest season, and many plants mature in autumn. In autumn, in nature, the qi of yin and yang begins to change, the yang is gradually declining, the yin is gradually flourishing, the climate turns from hot to cold, and everything is born with cold and gradually declines. This is the season of alternating hot and cold. As the temperature gradually drops, the leaves of many deciduous perennial plants will gradually change color, wither and fall off, leaving only branches for winter.

Panicum miliaceum will come to the end of his life, wither and die. Seasonal variation covers many aspects of climate characteristics, and it is not accurate to judge autumn only by temperature. The most obvious change in autumn is that the leaves of vegetation change from lush green to yellow, and the leaves begin to fall and the crops begin to mature.
