HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 9 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 29 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 74 PER
CENT.

 

AS SUPER TYPHOON MANGKHUT HAS AN EXTENSIVE CIRCULATION AND
TOOK A MORE NORTHWESTWARD TRACK WITH HIGHER SPEEDS, THE
THREAT TO THE VICINITY OF THE PEARL RIVER DELTA IS
INCREASING. THE OBSERVATORY WILL CONSIDER ISSUING THE
STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1 TONIGHT. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD
COMPLETE ALL PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE VERY HOT WEATHER WARNING IS NOW IN FORCE. VERY HOT
WEATHER MIGHT CAUSE ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS. MEMBERS OF THE
