It is suddenly getting pretty warm in Shanghai, even though it should be the raining season now. When I drove back from a lunch meeting today the temperature was 37 degrees, so luckily our office has a good airconditioning system. The Shanghai government even issued a Orange Weather Alert today because of the high temperature. No idea why they call it Orange, maybe because Holland plays its last group match at the World Cup tonight?
