[quote=SUNJAN,371449]I've been looking around for the most detailed forecast maps, to select a spot with the best chances, within 3 hours driving time or so from Shanghai.

This is what I've found:
www.yr.no/place/China/Shanghai/Shanghai/advanced_map.html
7timer.y234.cn/V3/product.php?language=en&product_id=...
www.meteoblue.com/index.php?id=341&L=&did=135&amp...
www.nmc.gov.cn/publish/precipitation/2-day.htm

The YR.NO web site is by far the most detailed, but all maps conclude that best weather will probably be south of Hangzhou bay.
To me it looks like the coast east or south of Ningbo will be OK, at least no precipitation. And Meteoblue.com also points in that direction.

Like said earlier, the trade-off is shorter totality (approx 5.05 min) because it's further from the center line, but anything is better than staying in Shanghai.

I'm looking for people to share a taxi or minibus leaving early morning (5am or so) from Shanghai, tentatively aiming for the coastline off Ningbo. I'll be staying at Ramada Plaza Sino Bay, and my mobile number is +46-70 765 95 45 (Jan Sundström).
