Cyclone swept Taiwan on July 18, and the following day, hit Fujian.
KC & I left Fujian July 15 (thank Heavens!) so we are dry (but wet from humidity and intense heat - is this what H-LL feels like)!
We are further north of Fujian, and separate by a series of mountains. And we are heading further north and little east to Beijing and Tianjin and Chengde.
Beijing is cooler, I understand. If it's anything like what we've experienced in the cities of Suzhou, Wuxi, Hangzhou (generally due east of Shanghai), athletes would be dropping like flies at their first feat!
