Ha, moondog you weren't here last week when it was over 105F for 2-3 days. I was in Nanjing last week and one day was 107F, the other was 109F. Three weeks ago I was in Beijing and it was over 100F for 4 days in a row! I too can take some heat, but not for such extended periods of time!
The worst part of China is the humidity. In the summer dewpoint never seems to drop below 25C...
Right now Shanghai is hotter than Guangzhou, HKG, SIN, MNL etc.
