What does the weather forecast mean that there is a moon on the light rain? such as

The weather forecast shows that the moon above the light rain means that the light rain turns cloudy at night.

Weather forecast (measurement) or meteorological forecast (measurement) is to use modern science and technology to predict the state of the earth's atmosphere in a certain place in the future. Since prehistoric times, human beings have begun to predict the weather and arrange their work and life accordingly (such as agricultural production and military operations). Today's weather forecast mainly uses the collection of a large number of data (temperature, humidity, wind direction and speed, air pressure, etc. ), and then use the current understanding of atmospheric processes (meteorology) to determine future air changes. Because of the chaos of the atmospheric process and the fact that science has not fully understood the atmospheric process today, there will always be some errors in the weather forecast. [ 1]?

The satellite cloud image of China Central Meteorological Observatory was taken from Fengyun-1 and other meteorological satellites. Using satellite cloud images for analysis can improve the accuracy of weather forecast. Weather forecast is usually divided into three types: short-term weather forecast (2 ~ 3 days), medium-term weather forecast (4 ~ 9 days) and long-term weather forecast (10 ~ 15 days or more). CCTV mainly broadcasts short-term weather forecast every day.

Commonly used terms are as follows:

Sunny day: the cloud cover in the sky is less than 30%.

Yin: The amount of clouds in the sky accounts for more than 90%.

Fog: A large number of tiny water droplets or ice crystals float in the air near the ground, and the horizontal visibility drops below 1 km, which affects transportation.

Light rain: the daily precipitation is less than 10 mm.

Heavy rain: the daily precipitation is 25.0-49.9mm..

Thunderstorm: Intermittent precipitation accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Hail: With the violent vertical movement in the cumulonimbus cloud, small hail nuclei repeatedly rise, condense, fall and melt, and grow into small ice cubes with transparent layers, which have an impact on crops.

Freezing rain: raindrops freeze on the ground below 0℃, also known as rain song (frozen by fog drops, called rime), which often falls off the power lines, freezing the road surface and affecting communication, power supply and traffic.

Sleet: The temperature near the ground is slightly higher than 0℃, and wet snow or rain and snow drop at the same time.

Xiaoxue: The daily snowfall (melting into water) is less than 2.5mm. ..

Medium snow: the daily snowfall (melting into water) is 2.6-4.9 mm.

Heavy snow: the daily snowfall (melting into water) reaches or exceeds 5.0 mm.

Frost: Frost is formed when water vapor condenses into white crystals on the ground and the surface of objects at a temperature below 0℃. If there is little water vapor and no frost, it is said that black frost has freezing damage to crops, which is called frost.

Low-pressure trough and high-pressure ridge: on the fluctuating high-altitude westerly airflow, the trough corresponds to the low-pressure trough, with active warm air in front of the trough, rain and snow weather, controlled cold air behind the trough, and strong wind cooling weather; The peak corresponds to the ridge of high pressure and the sky is clear.

Cold and warm fronts: A cold front is the front of cold air. At the junction of cold air and warm air mass, cold air pushes towards warm air. It is windy and rainy on the cold front, and windy and cool after the front; On the contrary, it is a warm front, the front is rainy, and it turns cloudy and sunny after the front, and the temperature rises.

Strong wind: expressed by wind vector, consisting of wind mast and wind plume. The wind pole refers to the direction of the wind, with eight directions. The wind plume is represented by 3 or 4 short strokes and triangles, perpendicular to the right side of the wind pole end (northern hemisphere).
