]]> <![CDATA[By: ]]> danarei, good job with the translations, but let me explain these two:

-castañón (castaña) - big chesnut or also a big drunkenness. In an informal way "castaña" also means" borrachera".

-movidón (movida) - it's not very busy, movida in slang means lío, jaleo, alboroto, so it would be a big mess.

On that note... hoy hace 20 grados.

You're right, we have a lot of adjectives that describe a "big heat."  I was looking for a noun that you could say, "My goodness, what a _________ (big heat)." 

The closest thing I could think of was "heat wave," but you really wouldn't say that in that sentence.  I know some people can say "scorcher," as in "My goodness, what a scorcher!" but I don't really say that. 

Hoy en Shanghai no hace tanto calor que antes...hace 26 grados.
