What are the weather characteristics of the winter solstice solar terms?

The winter solstice solar terms have two obvious characteristics: 1 and short sunshine time. 2. The temperature is low and the climate is cold.

As the saying goes, "after eating the winter solstice meal, the day becomes a little longer." After the winter solstice, the day time becomes longer day by day. However, the solar radiation obtained on the ground is still less than the heat lost by the ground radiation, so the temperature will continue to drop in the short term. During the winter solstice, the average temperature in the northwest plateau is generally below 0℃, and the southern region is only about 6℃ to 8℃. In addition, the winter solstice begins to count to nine, and the winter solstice becomes the first day to count to nine.

Winter solstice, also known as solstice, winter festival, child year, etc. It has both natural and humanistic connotations. It is not only an important solar term among the 24 solar terms, but also a traditional folk ancestor worship festival in China.

The solstice in winter is considered as a big holiday in winter. In ancient times, there was a saying that the winter solstice was as big as a year. The custom of winter solstice varies in content or details due to different regions. In southern China, there are customs of offering sacrifices to ancestors and enjoying the winter solstice. In northern China, it is a custom to eat jiaozi from winter to Sunday every year.

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. Because of the huge climate difference in China, this climatic winter is obviously late for most parts of China.
