Yeah, we’re pretty lucky with weather outside of the rainy season here in Kaohsiung. One of the few perks of this place over Taipei. 
Taipei gets 200 less hours of sunshine than notoriously rainy city London? 
I knew Taipei had crappy weather, but I didn’t know it was that bad.
During the summer KHH is definitely far less humid than TPE and a couple Celsius less in temperature.
Less humid, yes. Is it really cooler though? Because it feels like an oven in August.
Our family lived a long long time in Taipei. We all agree that the few (3-5) Celsius lower in temperature makes a huge difference in summer.
I knew it, my hair’s growing gray significantly after living here for the last 4 years due to the lack of vitamin D.
