For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Changchun Friends

a great way to get involved

As with our competition for the first day of snow, here is one for the first day of spring

The question you have to answer is:

When will the day time temperature record 20 degrees Celsius or more for the first time this year? The weather station that will be used is Accuweather.

People who bet 10 days before the actual record will not be counted.

The winner to get a bottle of red wine from Sam's and if there is more than one winner, then it is alternative drinks to the value of the wine split between winners.

I will start it off and say April 17th

Votes so far:
Peter Aziz 5 April
Eric 9 April
Steve 15 April
Elliot B 16 April
Richard 17 April
Sharon 20 April
Richard Ridealgh 24 April
Chris Knight 25 April

Well, Sharon and Richard congrats. The actual temp according to Accuweather was 20 yesterday so I will split the prize - nominally put at 150 RMB for a bottle of wine for you to choose the poison of your choice!

I decree that by 12:30, a sudden blizzard will erupt and temperatures will plummet to -45 celsius.

The forecast says it will be 21 degrees by 1.00 today. Sharon and Richard Ridealgh look the favourites now!
Comment by Richard Roman on April 16, 2013 at 15:22
My guess is that either Sharon or richard will win!
