HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 8 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 31 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 81 PER
CENT.

 

TYPHOON GAEMI HAS MADE LANDFALL ON THE COAST OF PUTIAN IN
FUJIAN. IT WILL MOVE INLAND OF SOUTHEASTERN CHINA AND
WEAKEN GRADUALLY, MAINTAINING A DISTANCE OF OVER 500
KILOMETRES FROM HONG KONG. ITS CIRCULATION WILL BE
RELATIVELY FAR FROM THE PEARL RIVER ESTUARY. UNLESS GAEMI
ADOPTS A MORE WESTERLY TRACK, 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 ARE EXPECTED, WITH MORE SHOWERS AT
FIRST. 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.

STRONG WINDS ARE EXPECTED FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THE PUBLIC
SHOULD BEWARE OF THE POSSIBLE DANGER BROUGHT BY ROUGH SEAS.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE THUNDERSTORM WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED. IT WILL REMAIN
EFFECTIVE UNTIL 9:30 P.M. TODAY. A FEW SQUALLY
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO OCCUR OVER HONG KONG.
