Today is Major Cold (大寒), the final solar term of the Chinese 24 solar terms, usually falling between January 20 and 22 each year. As the culmination of winter, Major Cold marks the coldest period of the year, and is also the most pronounced time of cold weather.
Major Cold is the last solar term in the Chinese lunar calendar’s 24 solar terms. The word “cold” refers to the severe weather, while “major” signifies the extreme cold during this period. At this time, the north wind howls, and temperatures drop to their lowest point of the year. However, this does not signal the end of winter; instead, it marks the deepening phase of the season. During this period, the chilling winds and frigid temperatures prevail, but as Major Cold passes, spring draws nearer.
From a cultural perspective, Major Cold is an important point for agricultural and life preparations. In ancient times, people used this time to prepare for the coming year's farming, with hopes for a bountiful harvest.
SMYG LIMITED also reminds our customers that with the sharp drop in temperature, it is crucial to pay special attention to the storage and use environments of electronic components to avoid performance issues caused by the cold. Keeping components within the proper temperature range can extend their lifespan and ensure efficient operation.
Though Major Cold brings harsh conditions, the warmth of spring is quietly approaching. Let’s embrace the challenges and opportunities of the new year together!
