Hong Kong has recorded its hottest Mid-Autumn Festival in history, with temperatures reaching 35.7 degrees Celsius, surpassing the previous high of 33.8 degrees. The Hong Kong Observatory issued warnings for extreme heat and advised the public to stay hydrated and avoid strenuous outdoor activities. Despite the heat, many families celebrate with traditional meals and moon gazing, although cloudy weather and thunderstorms are expected later in the day. This year's festival follows a notably hot summer, with the city experiencing a mean temperature of 29.4 degrees Celsius. The extreme heat is part of a larger trend, as climate scientists warn that such weather events are becoming increasingly frequent due to human-induced climate change. As the festivities continue, locals are reminded to bring umbrellas in case of rain during evening celebrations.
