The plum rain season in Hangzhou typically lasts for about a month and usually ends in early to mid-July. During this period, it is essential not only to carry rain gear at all times, but also to be mindful of secondary disasters that may result from long-term rainfall.
Moisture control at home is very important after the rainy season begins. If you notice high humidity indoors, consider using dehumidifiers, moisture absorbers, or similar products—especially in enclosed spaces like closets.
Due to the combination of high humidity and warm temperatures, termite infestations are also on the rise. To prevent termites from entering your home, it's advisable to turn off lights in places like balconies and bathrooms at night. In addition, you should avoid stacking cardboard, wooden planks, or newspapers in open areas such as balconies, which may become nesting sites of termites. If necessary, seek assistance from professional pest control services.
Meanwhile, this year's first typhoon, Wutip (Tropical Storm level), was officially formed over the central-western of the South China Sea this morning. Although the typhoon is unlikely to make landfall along the Zhejiang coast, its outer circulation, combined with the southerly airflow on the western side of the subtropical high, is expected to bring moderate to heavy rain—and possibly localized downpours—to parts of southeastern Zhejiang on June 12–13.
However, this season is also one of the most beautiful times to admire West Lake in its misty. With the cooler temperatures brought by the rain, why not take a stroll along the lakeside and experience the famous saying: “The West Lake in rain is even more enchanting than in sunshine.”
