Tired of forgetting the exact date of the Minor Snow (Xiaoxue) solar term? This tool uses astronomical algorithms to automatically calculate the exact number of days from the current time to the next Minor Snow. Minor Snow is the 20th of the 24 solar terms, usually occurring on November 22nd or 23rd of the Gregorian calendar, when the sun reaches the celestial longitude of 240 degrees. The tool outputs an intuitive day countdown, helping you plan agricultural activities or traditional cultural experiences in advance.
Q: What exact day is the Minor Snow solar term? How is it determined?
The Minor Snow solar term usually falls on November 22nd or 23rd each year. It is determined by the astronomical moment when the sun reaches a celestial longitude of 240°. This tool uses internationally recognized calendar calculation standards.
Q: How accurate is the countdown? Does it calculate down to the hour?
No, the tool only displays a countdown in days. Because the exact transition time of solar terms is precise to the minute and varies every year, we only provide full-day calculations to simplify usage.
Please ensure your device's system time is set correctly to get an accurate countdown. Results are displayed in full days and do not include finer time granularities. This tool only provides solar term time calculations and does not include weather forecasting features.
Minor Snow is the second solar term of winter, marking the beginning of snowfall, though the volume is usually light. According to the "Collective Interpretation of the Seventy-Two Phenologies" (Yueling Qishier Hou Jijie), at this time, "rain falls and is thinned by the cold air, thus condensing into snow." Typical application example: Minor Snow in 2023 was on November 22nd. If the current date is November 1st, the tool will display "21 days until Minor Snow." We recommend traditional culture enthusiasts use this countdown to prepare for related folk activities in advance.
