The Major Heat falls on July 22,23 or 24. As its name suggests this solar term ushers in a period much hotter than the Minor Heat. The sunshine reaches its maximum, and philotherm plants and crops thrive in the intense heat. The Major Heat is usually in the middle of the hottest dog days. At the same time, meteorological disasters such as droughts, floods, and windstorms frequently occur. Most Chinese eat cold dishes at this time to stay cool, although people in some parts of China choose hot food to welcome this solar term. After the Major Heat, autumn arrives.
