HOURLY READINGS

 

AT 1 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 28 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 54 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 6. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS HIGH.

 

ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT FORECAST, TROPICAL CYCLONE TRAMI
WILL ENTER WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF HONG KONG LATER
TOMORROW (24 OCTOBER) TO EARLY 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 AND INTENSIFY GRADUALLY.
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 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. THERE ARE
UNCERTAINTIES IN THE SUBSEQUENT MOVEMENT AND INTENSITY OF
TRAMI. IT MAY LINGER NEAR HAINAN ISLAND EARLY NEXT WEEK.
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD TAKE NOTE OF THE LATEST
WEATHER FORECAST OF THE OBSERVATORY.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

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