April 15, 2010, 03:39 AM posted in General DiscussionThis morning I came by the latest post from the Telegraph's Shanghai blog - and I had to share it:
"The Best Weather Report in the World"
Malcolm Moore discusses the wonders of the China Met Office's weather forecasts, including the brilliant index reports that are offered on their website: there's everything from a "car wash" index to "make-up" and "romance" indexes. Detailed weather-related advice and tips are provided also. How cool is that?!
Here's the link to the website:

It is wonderful, isn't it?! Out of interest, you wouldn't by any chance be taking a trip to Jiujiang with your awesome flatmate and friends this weekend, would you? hehehe...
BTW Good luck with any dates you may have coming up, whatever the weather ;-)

How do you know?? I am indeed going for the weekend to Lu Shan, near Jiujiang, with my lovely housemate... who happens to work at ChinesePod!
We should give travelling details/suggestions to all the Poddies when we come back Su Xiaoya :-)

April 15, 2010, 04:05 AMThat is a wonderful website! I especially like it becasue, unlike most other websites stating we will have up to 90% chances of rain, it says that this weekend the weather in Jiujiang will just be cloudy!
Love it! And well, you do need to know when to schedule a romantic date according to the weather, not sure how we managed to go on any date before we had this amazing tool...
