I wonder how is the situation now , can our members who live in Chongqing give us some information ?

I also got the info from the News Release of TravelChinaGuide on the top right corner of this web page. Hope all can well protect themselves against sunstroke. :)))

I'll be back in CQ on Tuesday evening so I'll let you know what it is like if it is still hot but I'm sure glad I missed the worst of it.
