Xinhua News Agency, Tianjin, May 3 (Reporter Zhou Runjian) "Suddenly shocked Xia Xiangming to stand up and fear that spring would be changed from here." "Chinese Astronomical Almanac" shows that at 8:51 on May 5, Beijing time, usher in 24 "Lixia" in solar terms is a turning point in astronomy to say goodbye to spring and welcome summer, marking the end of spring and the official start of summer. At this time, the greenery is everywhere, the wind is warm and the day is long, the new lotus in Hengtang, and the flowers and butterflies are busy.

Although it is already "lixia" in astronomy, according to climatological standards, before and after "lixia", only some areas in the south of China entered the summer of "frogs everywhere in the grass pond", while most areas in the north were "everything red" "Zhong Dou Fang Fei" in Zhongchun and Twilight.
At this time, the spring-sown crops gradually grew up, the summer harvest crops entered the late growth stage, the winter wheat was filled with flowers, and the rapes were close to maturity.
