Han means cold, and Xiaohan indicates the degree of coldness. Starting from the Minor Cold solar term, the average temperature in Beijing is generally around -5℃, and the extreme minimum temperature is below -15℃; the northern part of Northeast China is truly a world of ice sculptures and jade. It's a severe winter scene. Minor Cold is the 23rd solar term in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar and the fifth solar term in winter, marking the official beginning of the winter season. When the sun reaches 285° of ecliptic longitude (Xiao Han), it marks the arrival of the coldest day of the year for China.Introduction to the Great Cold Solar Term : The Great Cold is the last solar term among the 24 solar terms in the year. Around January 20th of the Gregorian calendar every year, when the sun reaches 300° of the ecliptic longitude, it is the Great Cold. During the Great Cold period, the atmospheric circulation is relatively stable, and the circulation adjustment cycle is about 20 days. When this circulation adjusts, large-scale rain, snow, strong winds and cooling temperatures often occur. When there is a long wave ridge west of 80 degrees east longitude and a large coastal trough in East Asia, my country will experience sustained low temperatures due to the control of northwesterly airflow and the continuous replenishment of cold air. A little cold or a big cold?The Minor Cold is generally colder than the Major Cold <br /> There is no definite answer to this question. Historical data statistics show that the situation varies in different places and years. Generally speaking, the average minimum temperature of the Major Cold in the north is lower than the average minimum temperature of the Minor Cold; the opposite is true in the south. Climate experts believe that there are many factors that affect whether a place is a Major Cold or a Minor Cold. Whether it is a Minor Cold or a Major Cold in a certain year or a certain region requires specific analysis. Also, the climate is changing. Statistics from the past few decades can only reflect the situation in the recent period, and the climate conditions in the recent period may not be the same as those two thousand years ago. |
