You'll soon experience more of the 'strange weather' in Changsha Norbert.

It's extremely cold in winter without heating system. While in summer, weather is unbearably hot. Changsha has long been called the fourth furnace in China by local people.

When I was there, I strongly believed that it is the fourth furnace:)

Btw, who knows why Changsha was called Star city?

Yes and when the sky is miraculously blue it is too hot to go outside and everyone, men and women put up the umbrellas.
And when you make a comment about how beautiful the sky is today its seems as if no one even notices, it's just too hot to go outside.

BTW Elcabron we've had some of the clearest blue skies you'll ever see in CQ this past summer. Must be all the rain.
