Winter Fails to Arrive in Jiangxi with Temperatures Reaching 27°C

Today, we welcomed the third solar term of winter, “Major Snow”

Some may wonder:

Will Jiangxi experience heavy snow during “Major Snow”?

Winter Fails to Arrive in Jiangxi with Temperatures Reaching 27°C The truth is: “Major Snow” does not equal heavy snowfall The “Major Snow” solar term and the heavy snow forecast have no necessary connection. The standard for heavy snow in weather forecasts is defined as 5.0—9.9 millimeters of snowfall within 24 hours. This “Major Snow” is not the same as that heavy snow; the arrival of the “Major Snow” solar term does not mean that there will be widespread heavy snowfall on that day. It represents a climatic concept of temperature and precipitation during the solar term. In terms of temperature, if the arrival of “Minor Snow” signifies the onset of cold weather, then “Major Snow” indicates that the coldness in our country will deepen, and the likelihood of snowfall will increase.

According to the snow-seeking map released by the China Weather Network today, the hope of seeing snow in southern regions is quite slim. Currently, most areas in Jiangxi are experiencing a rise in temperature, and the weather is relatively dry, making it difficult to form snowfall. Friends who have been hoping to see snow recently will have their wishes dashed.

Next week, the three cities in Jiangxi

Pingxiang, Ji’an, and Ganzhou

will see maximum temperatures reaching 27°C

which can be described as a “failure to enter winter”.

Health Tips for Major Snow

1. Cold Prevention and Warmth

After “Major Snow”, the weather gets colder, and temperatures drop further, so the public should pay more attention to cold prevention and warmth. Generally, the indoor temperature in households should be maintained at 15-20 degrees Celsius. In low-temperature environments, proper cold-resistant clothing, hats, shoes, gloves, etc., should be equipped. Clothing, shoes, and gloves should avoid moisture and remain dry. Hands and feet should not be tightly bound to avoid affecting peripheral blood circulation, which can lead to frostbite and other injuries.

2. Winter Diet

“Major Snow” is also a good time for nourishment, as there is a saying: “Nourish in winter, and you will conquer in spring.” “Major Snow” nourishment can enhance the body’s immune function, promote metabolism, and improve the phenomenon of cold intolerance. For example, drinking a bowl of lamb stew with white radish or chicken stew with chestnuts can not only replenish yang energy but also warm the internal organs and enhance cold resistance.

3. Disease Prevention:

Winter is the peak season for respiratory infectious diseases, making it easy to contract influenza caused by the flu virus, which is highly contagious. It mainly spreads through droplets and dust in the air. Symptoms include fever, fatigue, headache, cough, and runny nose. Drinking plenty of water, washing hands frequently, and ensuring good ventilation can effectively resist the invasion of viruses.
