TYPHOON GAEMI WILL MAKE LANDFALL OVER THE COAST OF FUJIAN
SHORTLY, AND THEN ENTER THE INLAND AREAS OF SOUTHEASTERN
CHINA, MAINTAINING A DISTANCE OF OVER 500 KILOMETRES FROM
HONG KONG. UNLESS GAEMI ADOPTS A MORE WESTERLY TRACK AFTER
MAKING LANDFALL OVER FUJIAN, ITS CIRCULATION WILL BE
RELATIVELY FAR FROM THE PEARL RIVER ESTUARY AND THE CHANCE
OF ISSUING TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING SIGNAL IS RELATIVELY
LOW. MEANWHILE, A STRONG SOUTHWEST MONSOON IS AFFECTING THE
COAST OF GUANGDONG AND THE NORTHERN PART OF THE SOUTH CHINA
SEA. THE STRONG MONSOON SIGNAL IS NOW IN FORCE.
 
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE SOUTHWEST MONSOON, WINDS WILL BE
STRONG OFFSHORE TONIGHT AND TOMORROW, OCCASIONALLY REACHING
GALE FORCE ON HIGH GROUND AT FIRST. A FEW SHOWERS AND
SQUALLY THUNDERSTORMS WERE EXPECTED, WITH MORE SHOWERS AT
FIRST TOMORROW. THERE WILL BE OCCASIONAL SHOWERS, HEAVY AT
TIMES, IN THE FOLLOWING COUPLE OF DAYS. MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE LATEST WEATHER FORECAST.
