HK heat is no joke, I remember deciding to hike Victoria Peak about 5 years ago.
The moment I stepped outside my airbnb room, I was hit in the face with the epic humidity.
Never in my life have I drenched my backpack in sweat from such a short "hike".
Even Vancouver's heat wave last year, 40C, was not as bad as HK humidity + heat. I think you need to be born in that climate to be "useto it"

TFW you know you gonna get smacked in the fucking face the moment you step through the airport doors.
I remember the first time I went to Taipei in 2016. I had never been smacked with a larger wall of heat in my life. I thought I was walking through some hot air exhaust when I first stepped out of the airport, lol.
The hottest time was somewhere in 2017 or 2018. I was in Taipei during the summer. There is a little square outside my girlfriend's house where all the old grandma/grandpas do their tai-chi and daily exercise. In that square is a giant clock that also shows the temperature. Shit said it was 38 degrees. I checked online and with humidity it was like 50 degrees.
Parts of Taiwan recorded over 41 degrees today. It's fucking nuts over there.

Man fuck travelling anywhere outside the Lower Mainland during the summer, the whole fucking N. Hemisphere is an oven on fire from June-September now. This coupled with airport delays, screaming kids off of school and crowds, crowds, crowds it's just not worth it.
Vancouver despite the changing climate is still the best place to be July-Sept by far.
Now watch me eat these words the next Smoke Advisory we get.

C'mon man ... over 30C you can say it's hot but under 30C ... no whining.
Right now Weather Network says it's 23C and feels like 27C. Just stepped outside, honestly, it's not that bad yet. It will get past 30C later this week. But unless you work outside like construction or traffic flagger ...

As soon as you get into that direct heat with stagnant air it feels like it’s 10 degrees hotter

This weather has been great, stop complaining.
We'll all be bitching in October when it's raining 6 months straight.

A bit of heat and smoke is fine, but some years here I'd gladly trade it for your rain. It can get so thick you can see the haze looking across the street and visibility is less than a block.
