Weather patterns have a tendency to repeat itself.ZDreg, why are you posting an article from almost 4 years ago? From June 2017? Yer better than that.
As for whether the virus can survive hot weather or not...Well, the thing is spreading all over Africa, and it gets pretty hot in many places on the continent every day during the day, at some point.
So why is it spreading there? (And where are they getting the test kits from? lol!)
