When to visit Shanghai by weather? Sunday, May 30th, 2010
Now Shanghai is the spot center because of Expo 2010. When I walked on the street in the past months, I could tell more and more exotic faces visiting city.
Today I watched real TV show on the site of Expo, and I really don’t think it is a good experience to queue a couple of hour to gain entry to the pavilion in hot summer. Now I believe Shanghai weather is still mild, specially a cooler air in the morning and evening. However, scorching days are approaching in the coming June, July, and August, so be prepared to take measure against any unpleasant baking days when you happen to pay a visit to Expo 2010. Read More…

40 Degrees! Hottest Day in Shanghai in 60 years Monday, July 20th, 2009
Hot, hot, hot…. that’s all I want to say today! And yes, today is the hottest day ever in 60 years in Shanghai, record high 40 degrees.
The sky was clear, the sun was shining all day. Although I could feel the wind, it was like standing in front of a hot oven! Completely roasted!
It is even worse that so many people catch cold. Office is usually very cool because of the air conditioning. Some offices even set the temperature as low as 20 degrees. Imagine, you get out of the building where is 20 degrees and immediately into a 40 degree oven. I even got the goose bumps when I did that. Read More…
