"Little Snow" is a season that reflects weather phenomena. The snow is small and there is no snow on the ground. This is the original meaning of the solar term "little snow". The ancient book "Quanfang Pu" says: "A small snow is cold and it will snow, but the ground is cold and the snow is not even heavy."
That is to say, when it comes to light snow, due to the cold weather, the precipitation changes from rain to snow, but at this time, due to the "coldness of the ground", the number of snowfalls is small and the amount of snow is not large, so it is called light snow. Therefore, light snow represents the starting time and degree of snowfall. Like rain, grain rain and other solar terms, light snow is a solar term that directly reflects precipitation.
