We arrived at the end of March and it was already warmer than in the UK. When it rains here it really rains, but the advantage is that it clears the air and then you have beautiful clear days (until the pollution builds again!!). You can see a visible difference in the air quality from downtown and the suburbs.
Today it is a glorious sunny warm spring day. The blossoms are out all over town and it is just beautiful.
