Judging from the 24 solar terms, there are two solar terms: little summer and big summer.

During the hot summer, the average temperature in many areas is above 30 degrees Celsius, and some places have even broken through the high temperature of 40 degrees, giving people a feeling of heat wave. The summer heat is the season with the highest temperature and the highest yang around midsummer. High temperature weather of 40 degrees Celsius often occurs in many areas of our country. This season is the fastest growing period of warm-loving crops.
