The modern seven-rhythm poem of Xiaoshu solar term is as follows:
The warm summer wind in Jinghu Lake arrives, and the drizzle knocks on the window to bring Xiaoshu. The green leaves are shining with thousands of pearls, and the red lotus is shining in half the pond. Jianjia is gathered into poems, and fresh lotus roots are poured into wine glasses. Why should Zhulou be sad and white-haired, not as drunk as Penglai in the green field.
The introduction of the Xiaoshu solar term is as follows:
The Xiaoshu solar term is "little heat", which means that although the weather can already feel the heat at this time, it has not reached the hottest temperature in a year. Slight heat is just the beginning of the hot summer. As the saying goes: "The heat is in the third volt." The dog days of summer, which occur between the mild summer heat and the extreme summer heat, are the hottest, humid, and sultry period of the year.
Monsoon climate is the main characteristic of China's climate. Monsoon climate is a mixture of continental climate and oceanic climate. Affected by warm and humid airflow from the ocean, summer is hot, humid and rainy. The high temperature of the monsoon climate is basically consistent with the rainy period, and the rain and heat are at the same time, which is beneficial to the growth of crops. During the Xiaoshu season, the weather is hot and thunderstorms are frequent, and it is a time when everything grows wildly.
During the Slight Summer Season, western South China enters the season with the most heavy rains. The number of heavy rain days in July and August can account for more than 75% of the year, usually about 3 days. However, in eastern South China, after the minor summer heat, due to the frequent control of subtropical high pressure and frequent sunny and high-temperature weather, the period began to enter the drought period. The climate characteristics of most areas in southern China, with drought in the east and floods in the west, are closely related to agricultural abundance and drought. Drought and flood control measures must be taken as early as possible to minimize the damage.
South China, Southwest China, and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are in the southwest monsoon rainy season coming from the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea; while the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River generally experience high temperatures and little rain under the control of subtropical high pressure, and frequent droughts have an impact on agricultural production. It is very important to store water early to prevent drought at this time.
Small Heat begins to enter the Dog Days. As the saying goes, "the heat is in the Dog Days." The Dog Days usually appear between the Little Heat and the End of Heat. They are the hottest, humid, and sultry period of the year. Monsoon climate is the main characteristic of China's climate. In summer, affected by warm and humid airflow from the ocean, many places in China are hot, humid and rainy. Although there are strong sunshine, high temperature, humidity and rain during the Slight Heat period, for crops, the rain and heat at the same time are conducive to the growth.
