How do you think it will rain?

There are too many ways. Meteorological proverbs reflect the relationship between weather changes and some natural phenomena in the form of idioms or ballads, which are the crystallization of the wisdom of working people for thousands of years. Some are superstitious and some are quite scientific. In the past, when the countryside was not as developed as it is now, we just summed up the usual rain phenomenon and used it for production and life. Later, these peasant proverbs were called "agricultural proverbs" for short. The Chinese nation is smart and brilliant. Even in the era of technological prosperity, we should use these methods to prove the accuracy of weather forecast. First of all, proverbs about clouds and weather:

There is a fish-scale white cloud in the sky, often arranged in rows or groups. This is cirrocumulus. Due to the instability at high altitude, cirrocumulus often changes from cirrus clouds and cirrostratus. This kind of cloud often appears in front of the low pressure. With the approach of the low pressure, it will be rainy or windy.

"The wind swings violently in the sun and the rain swings violently at night."

Flail is a halo, which is a cirrostratus formed by sunlight or moonlight passing through ice crystals, reflecting or refracting to form internal infrared blue halo. Cirrostratus usually appears in front of low pressure. If the low pressure approaches, the clouds will become: cirrostratus-upper clouds-nimbostratus, and then it will rain. And because the wind is strong in the relatively strong low-pressure area, the appearance of this cloud indicates that there will be rainy weather. In addition, the thicker the cirrostratus at night, the more invisible the stars in the moon cangue, indicating that the low pressure is approaching. Therefore, there is also a saying that "the day wind is a cangue, the night rain is a cangue, and the cangue has no stars".

"It rains at noon when the sun is dizzy, and it is windy at noon when the moon is dizzy."

"Dark clouds see the sun, and it rains in the middle of the night.

"The sunset walks in the clouds, and it rains after midnight."

"The dark clouds are long in the sunset, and the rain sounds at midnight."

These proverbs all say that at sunset, dark clouds rise from the western horizon and cover the sunset, and it will rain at midnight that day. There are also sayings that "dark clouds see the sunset, not today but tomorrow" and "dark clouds see the sun, not worrying about drought". The former is not sure that it will rain at midnight; The latter only said it would rain, but did not specify when it would rain. In short, when this happens, it usually rains, but the time of rain has to be analyzed in detail. It rains because the weather system in temperate regions moves from west to east. Dark clouds rose in the west at sunset, indicating that the rainy weather system in the west is moving to the local area, so it will rain after midnight. But when observing, we should pay attention to distinguish that "the dark clouds are high and the waist will break tomorrow." "The sunset is dark clouds, and the waist hurts in the Ming Dynasty." These two proverbs mean that although the dark clouds in the west meet the sunset, the lower part of the dark clouds is empty and exposed to the sky. When the sun goes down, it can still emerge from under the clouds. This means that the dark clouds there tend to dissipate and it will still be sunny tomorrow.
