Tags:Cool-Down Coming to Shanghai – Highs Finally Dropping to Only 28°C
If you've been in Shanghai recently, you've probably noticed: it just won't stop raining. And it's not just the rain – it's the sticky, humid, everything-feels-damp kind of weather that's been hanging around for days.
Residents have been joking that it feels like a "plush plum rain season" (黄梅天) – the city's famous rainy period that usually ends in July. Some say their tiles are literally "sweating" from the moisture in the air. Yes, it's that humid.
But here's the good news: a cool-down is coming.
When Does It Cool Down?
The real change comes tomorrow (September 1) . A cold front moving in from the north will meet warm, moist air over Shanghai, bringing a significant round of rain.
By Wednesday (September 2) , the maximum temperature will drop to just 28°C – a noticeable relief after weeks of heat and humidity.
From Wednesday through Saturday, expect cloudy skies with occasional showers, and highs staying at or below 30°C.

What's Causing This?
Shanghai has been sitting on the edge of a subtropical high-pressure system, which has been pulling in warm, moist air from the sea – the perfect recipe for scattered showers and high humidity.
That's why your floor tiles feel wet, your clothes take forever to dry, and the air feels heavy.
The incoming cold front will push that system away, finally bringing some relief – and a more comfortable end to the week.
