Macau in July

Hot, humid and open to typhoons. Once a signal No. 8 is hoisted, ferries to Hong Kong and Shenzhen stop and public transport halts, so outdoor sightseeing is effectively off. Refundable rooms and travel insurance give peace of mind.

July brought serious heat to Macau, 32°C on a typical afternoon and 26°C overnight. Early mornings were the best time to be outside. With 13 rain days on average, a wet day was rarely more than a few days away. Year to year it swung widely, from 5 rain days in 2007 to 20 in 2013.

27 days past 30°C made it a month for early starts and a long lunch indoors. Rain days averaged 18 mm each, so when it rained it rained properly.
