Will it rain during the Grain Full solar term?

The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River:
"If there is no rain during Grain in Ear, there will be less rain in the plum blossom season" and "If there is no rain during Grain in Ear, there will be no water in the Grain in Ear." For the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, if there is less rainfall during this period, it may be that the subtropical high pressure over the Pacific Ocean is weaker and located to the south, which means that when the plum rain season comes, there may be less precipitation. Therefore, there is a folk saying that "if there is no rain in Grain in Ear, there will be less rain in the Grain in Ear".
Southern Region:
“Xiaoman, Daman and the rivers are full” reflects the climate characteristics of this area with frequent rainfall and heavy rainfall. Generally speaking, if the cold air from the north can penetrate into the southern regions of my country at this time, and the warm and humid air flow in the south is also strong, it will easily cause heavy rain or extremely heavy rain in southern China. Therefore, the late period of the Grain Full solar term is often a tense period for flood prevention in these areas.

What does the rain during Grain Full represent?

During the Grain Full solar term, there is a saying circulating in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River and other areas: "If Grain Full is not reached, the wheat crop will be in danger." The "one danger" here refers to the fact that the wheat has just entered the milky stage and is very vulnerable to dry and hot winds, which can lead to insufficient grain filling, shriveled grains and reduced yields.
The crops in the fields need plenty of water, so the farmers are busy using water wheels to turn water; the harvested rapeseed is also waiting for the farmers to pound it to make fragrant rapeseed oil; farm work in the fields naturally cannot be delayed. But the silkworms at home also need to be carefully cared for. Around the Grain Full Festival, the silkworms will start to spin cocoons, and the silkworm farmers will be busy spinning silk reels. It is recorded in "Qing Jia Lu": "When Xiaoman comes, the silkworm women boil cocoons, prepare silk spinning wheels and reel silk, working day and night." It can be seen that in ancient times, during the Grain Full solar term, new silk was about to be put on the market, and the silk market was about to boom. Silkworm farmers and silk merchants were all full of expectations, waiting for the harvest day to come.
During the Grain Full solar term, rivers and lakes in the Jiangnan region are often full. If they are not, it must be a year of drought and little rain. There are many proverbs in this regard. For example, in Anhui, Jiangxi and Hubei provinces, there is a saying that "If the Grain Full is not fully harvested, there will be no water to wash dishes"; in Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou and other regions, there is an agricultural proverb that "If the Grain Full is not fully harvested, the field ridges will dry up"; in Sichuan Province, there is also a saying that "If the Grain Full is not harvested, the plows and harrows will be hung high". The word "full" here does not mean that the crop grains are full, but that there is plenty of rain.
