During the last solar term of a year, the major cold period can be divided into three parts, which can be called three “hou”. For the three parts, the temperature always drops from the first part to the third part. Most of China will encounter strong winds, low temperature and heavy snow in winter. Periods of major cold also tend to coincide with the Spring Festival. Thus, popular sayings link the cold weather to China’s most important time for family reunions:
* The New Year will come soon after the major cold period.
* Farmers need to take care of their crops when they celebrate the New Year because of the cold weather.
* The weather of the major cold period is extremely cold, even without the presence of strong winds.
* The weather of the Spring Equinox will not be warm if the weather of the major cold period is not cold.
* A typhoon will arrive in June of the next year if the weather south winds persist in the major cold period.
