HOURLY READINGS


 

AT NOON AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 30 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 53 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 7. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS HIGH.

 

ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT FORECAST, THE TROPICAL CYCLONE
TRAMI TO THE EAST OF THE PHILIPPINES WILL INTENSIFY
GRADUALLY AND ENTER WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF HONG KONG
LATER ON THURSDAY (24 OCTOBER) TO EARLY ON FRIDAY (25
OCTOBER). THE OBSERVATORY WILL THEN ISSUE THE STANDBY
SIGNAL, NO. 1. TRAMI IS FORECAST TO MOVE WEST IN THE
GENERAL DIRECTION TO THE VICINITY OF HAINAN ISLAND.
MEANWHILE, A REPLENISHMENT OF THE NORTHEAST MONSOON WILL
REACH SOUTHERN CHINA TOWARDS THE WEEKEND.  UNDER THE
COMBINED EFFECT OF TRAMI AND THE NORTHEAST MONSOON, IT WILL
BE WINDY AND BECOME CLOUDY WITH A FEW SHOWERS OVER THE
COAST OF SOUTHERN CHINA LATER ON FRIDAY AND OVER THE
WEEKEND. DEPENDING ON THE MOVEMENT OF TRAMI AND THE CHANGE
IN LOCAL WIND CONDITIONS, THE OBSERVATORY WILL ASSESS THE
NEED FOR ISSUING THE STRONG WIND SIGNAL, NO. 3. MEMBERS OF
THE PUBLIC SHOULD TAKE NOTE OF THE LATEST WEATHER FORECAST.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE FIRE DANGER WARNING IS RED AND THE FIRE RISK IS EXTREME.
