Living in Vancouver, I thought I had seen it all in terms of wet weather. I mean, we get rain all year round and it can get pretty bad. However, I didn’t realize it was freakin’ monsoon season in Taipei. It was like being under a waterfall. A boiling hot waterfall. Unlike everywhere else in the world, probably, the rain in Taipei is actually hot so walking around in it during 35 degree weather with 100% humidity makes you even hotter than when it’s dry so don’t think you can cool off in the rain. It’s a really good idea to carry around an umbrella…a tough lesson I learned early after getting soaked to the skin whilst making fun of Michael Kwan for his Mary Poppins-esque umbrella (yes, he looked ridiculous…but dry).

Yes it does rain out in Vancouver a lot, but it’s also boiling in the summer here. Though the weather has not been that good this year.
ReplyWe just set an all time June record here for rain. That was set back by the 11th. Just a bit away from here, there was so much rain a lake overflowed and completely washed out into a river taking some houses with it.
ReplyActually didn’t look so bad but thats probably because YouTube killed all the video detail
ReplyIt’s typical for Taiwan. Remember it is a tropical island so tropical storms are expected. Most rainfall in Taiwan occurs in 10 minute spurts.
Reply[...] though he is relatively accustomed to the precipitation in Vancouver, it simply does not compare to Taiwan torrential rainfall. In his own words, it’s like a boiling hot [...]
