For Guilin's Elephant Trunk Hill, Nanjing's Qinhuai River, Sanya, Leshan's Mount Emei, Hangzhou's West Lake and Hong Kong's Victoria Harbor, the probability of a less than 50% cloud cover on September 15 is 50% - 70%. These places may display a solitary moon or moon playing with clouds. Both are breathtakingly stunning.

By contrast, due to rainfall or cloudiness, Huangshan Mountain, Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan and Erhai Lake in Dali are not the perfect places for observing the moon.

People in Taiwan, Fujian and Guangdong may blame Typhoon Meranti for ruining their Mid-Autumn routine. According to weather forecasts, Meranti will make landfall in these provinces and bring torrential rain. We kindly suggest you arrange your outings wisely and keep safety in mind.
