Winter is over...already?


Hey folks! It is still February and it will be 80 degrees Fahrenheit or 27 degrees Celsius today. Last week or so I put away my long sleeve shirts and changed our A/C from heat to cool. In our apartment we have wall mounted A/C-H/C systems that we had to figure out since the controls are written in Chinese. We used the heating system for about 3 weeks when the outside day time temperature was around 18 Celsius (mid 60s) and at night around 12 Celsius (mid 50s). That's it! So it was a quick winter and already the weather is getting muggy! Yuck! I'm not going to like it in a few months when it gets warmer. Also, if it is that bad now what until summer! Whoa! That is the way it is around here. When that time comes, every A/C unit in Shenzhen will be working and this is a conservative guess but that will be about 20 million A/C units. That is A/C units in every home, school, and work place. I'm glad I'm not paying that electric bill! PS let me explain the photo above. The box item on the bottom left is what is outside humming away. The long rectangle box is mounted near the ceiling on the wall inside. The other small item is the remote.
