HONG KONG (SCMP): Thousands of excited Hongkongers and visitors lined the streets of Causeway Bay to watch an expanded fire dragon dance while others waited at the Wan Chai waterfront for the city’s first drone show to mark the Mid-Autumn Festival, the hottest in recorded history.
The Observatory recorded a temperature of 35.7 degrees Celsius (96.3 Fahrenheit) at its Tsim Sha Tsui headquarters at 3pm on Tuesday, the hottest Mid-Autumn Festival since records began in 1884. There was some drizzle in the early evening.
