9-DAY WEATHER FORECAST
 
GENERAL SITUATION:
WITH AN ANTICYCLONE ALOFT STRENGTHENING GRADUALLY, THE
WEATHER WILL IMPROVE AND WILL BE VERY HOT OVER GUANGDONG

AREA OF LOW PRESSURE NOW OVER THE SEAS EAST OF THE
PHILIPPINES IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP INTO A TROPICAL CYCLONE
AND INTENSIFY GRADUALLY. THERE ARE LARGE UNCERTAINTIES IN
ITS SUBSEQUENT MOVEMENT. IT IS MORE LIKELY THAT IT WILL
ENTER THE NORTHERN PART OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA EARLY NEXT
WEEK, BRINGING UNSETTLED WEATHER TO THE COAST OF SOUTHERN
CHINA. HOWEVER, THE TROPICAL CYCLONE MAY MOVE TOWARDS THE
VICINITY OF TAIWAN INSTEAD.
