***************************************

HOURLY READINGS

 

AT 10 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 30 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 78 PER
CENT.

 

THE TROPICAL DISTURBANCE NOW OVER THE NORTHERN PART OF THE
SOUTH CHINA SEA IS BRINGING UNSETTLED WEATHER TO THE
REGION. RADAR IMAGERY AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS SHOW THAT
THERE IS A CYCLONIC CIRCULATION AROUND THE DISTURBANCE, BUT
IT IS STILL LOOSELY ORGANISED WITH RELATIVELY WEAK WINDS
AND HAS NOT DEVELOPED INTO A TROPICAL CYCLONE. IT IS
EXPECTED THAT THE DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE NORTHWARDS AND EDGE
CLOSER TO THE COAST OF EASTERN GUANGDONG GRADUALLY TODAY
AND TOMORROW, AND WILL BRING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO
THE REGION. THE OBSERVATORY IS CLOSELY MONITORING WHETHER
THE DISTURBANCE WILL DEVELOP FURTHER. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC
PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE LATEST WEATHER FORECAST.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE THUNDERSTORM WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED. IT WILL REMAIN
EFFECTIVE UNTIL 11:00 P.M. TODAY. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
ARE EXPECTED TO OCCUR OVER NEW TERRITORIES EAST.
THE VERY HOT WEATHER WARNING IS NOW IN FORCE. PROLONGED
HEAT ALERT! PLEASE DRINK SUFFICIENT WATER. IF FEELING
UNWELL, TAKE REST OR SEEK HELP IMMEDIATELY. IF NEEDED, SEEK
MEDICAL ADVICE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
