Travelling to Hongkong this July, what's the weather like by then?

It varies but usually quite hot during the day, 30+ and the humidity, whilst not as bad as April-May, is still usually in the 80% at least. As an expat there we used to reckon 70% and 25 degrees was just about perfect, so your perception of humidity comfort may be different from mine! At night it can get down to 18 or so, but usually is in the mid 20s, although it can stay hot until the early hours.

Hello - As I recall it was starting to get very hot and sticky. August was worse. You'll also see a lot of Typhoons, so bring sturdy umbrellas.

Here is the local Hong Kong weather site - loads of info for you:

Basically, bring light clothing, good walking shoes or comfortable sandles, and umbrellas. Not that it rains all day, but those storms come on fast and leave fast, but also flood the streets and will drench you in a sec.

Have fun!

More about Hong Kong

Handed back to the government of China by the British in 1997, Hong Kong's thriving capitalist market has in no way been slowed down by the influence of Communist rule. Skyscrapers are packed into a relatively small skyline on Hong Kong Island, as the fast-paced lives of business people tick away at ground level.
