Look on http://www.wunderground.com/global/ stations/58367.html and http://weather.msn.com/local.aspx?wealocations=wc:CHXX0116 for historical weather data.
Street shopping for what?
There's a lot of general sightseeing information available online and in print already. If you want more specific recommendations, you need to tell us more about what you're interested in.

Nanjing Lu is a pedestrian street lined with malls, not street shopping!

One of the things you can see is archetecture.
Shanghai has a rich collection of buildings and structures of various architectural styles. The Bund, located by the bank of the Huangpu River, contains a rich collection of early 20th century architecture, ranging in style from neo-classical HSBC Building to the art deco Sassoon House. A number of areas in the former foreign concessions are also well preserved.

Despite rampant redevelopment, the old city still retains some buildings of a traditional style, including Yuyuan Garden, a traditional garden in the Jiangnan style.

In recent years, a large number of architectually distinctive, even eccentric, skyscrapers have sprung up throughout Shanghai. Notable examples of contemporary architecture include the Shanghai Museum and Shanghai Grand Theatre in the People's Square precinct.

The tallest tower in Asia, the distinctive Oriental Pearl Tower, is located in Shanghai. Its lower sphere is now available for living quarters, starting at very high prices. The Jin Mao tower located nearby is mainland China's tallest skyscraper, and ranks fifth in the world.

There is a shopping mall:
Amanda Plaza 芳汇广场
Address: 1118 Changshou Lu near Wanhangdu Lu 长寿路1118号 近万航渡路
Phone: 6240-6848
