🌤 Weather summary and notes
🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect a tropical "sauna" effect: temperatures hover around 30°C (86°F) with humidity making it feel like 34°C . May is the peak of the rainy season—expect sudden, dramatic downpours. Gear up: Pack a high-quality raincoat and waterproof shoes with grip (HK sidewalks turn into ice rinks when wet). The "AC Chill": While it's sweltering outside, malls and MTR stations are kept at freezing temperatures; always carry a light hoodie or "emergency flannel." Visibility: Check the "HK Observatory" app before heading to the Peak; if it's foggy, swap outdoor views for the museum slots.
