In the Chinese lunar calendar, today is "Chushu", which loosely translates as "end of heat" and marks the temperature shift from summer heat to autumn chill. This transition period, known as "Qiu Laohu", literally means "Autumn Tiger", or as Westerners might colloquially refer to it, "Indian summer".
