Still Scorching HOT Weather!!

We finally got a break in the weather! It’s only around 96° F!! And there is some wind. Better yet, humidity is even under 50%!

We have had practically no rain in weeks. Usually you can count on a typhoon or some disturbances building to give us some breaks in the heat.

The reports are that this is the longest continuous period of high heat. Hong Kong has set records for longest “Very Hot Warning” period. Shanghai has set several records of temperatures over 40° C or 104° F. We may still reach that later this week…………. But at least the humidity is down.

Here is a little comparison between nearby Guangzhou and Advance, NC:

Notice how the temperatures tend to drop down at night in NC. It only drops to around 80° F here!! Not much relief!
