HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 5 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 33 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 69 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 1. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS LOW.

 

IN THE PAST FEW HOURS, TROPICAL CYCLONE YAGI TO THE WEST OF
LUZON HAS INTENSIFIED. THE OBSERVATORY WILL ISSUE THE
STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1 AT 5:40 PM. WITH YAGI MOVING ACROSS
THE NORTHERN PART OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA, GRADUALLY EDGING
CLOSER TO THE VICINITY OF THE WESTERN COAST OF GUANGDONG
AND HAINAN ISLAND AND FURTHER INTENSIFYING IN THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS, WINDS OVER THE COAST OF SOUTHERN CHINA ARE
EXPECTED TO STRENGTHEN LATER THIS WEEK. THE CHANCE OF
ISSUING THE STRONG WIND SIGNAL, NO. 3 IS RELATIVELY HIGH.
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF YAGI, THE WEATHER OVER THE COAST OF
GUANGDONG WILL DETERIORATE IN THE LATTER PART OF THIS WEEK.
THERE WILL BE HEAVY SQUALLY SHOWERS AND SEAS WILL BE ROUGH
WITH SWELLS. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD TAKE NOTE OF THE
LATEST WEATHER FORECAST.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

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.
