First of all, this proverb means that in the first half of the lunar calendar, the winter solstice will be very cold, and animals such as cattle will freeze to death, but it will not be too cold in the middle of this winter. Basically, we can say goodbye to the cold at the end of the month. This is because the sun runs from winter solstice to winter solstice, which is the day with the least sunshine radiation in the northern hemisphere and the shortest day and the longest night in a year. Therefore, if the winter solstice solar term is in the middle of the month, you don't have to worry too much. You will feel warm this winter.
However, winter is different from before. There is also warm winter, sometimes it is not cold when it should be cold, and it is not cold when it should not be cold. The winter is different now. There is also warm winter, sometimes it is not cold when it should be cold, and it is not cold when it should not be cold. So the proverbs of the older generation are useless now, so they are useless now. However, it is worth noting that although it is a "warm winter solstice", everyone should pay attention to cold protection and prevent colds after eating winter solstice meals. After all, the climate in winter is not as usual. In addition, the solstice in winter is also a good time to keep fit. There is a folk saying that "Qi begins in winter". You might as well take the opportunity to exercise this year to make your body stronger.
In short, weather proverbs have different descriptions in different regions. It can only be said that old sayings can only be used as regional agricultural proverbs and cannot be used in a large area. To sum up, it is reasonable to say that it is warm in the middle of winter, and this winter is also very cold. Although 100% is not accurate, it still has certain reference value. Well, what Bian Xiao shared today about "the warmth of solstice winter" is here.
