HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 2 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 32 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 67 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 10. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS VERY HIGH.

 

THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE NOW OVER THE VICINITY OF LEIZHOU
PENINSULA IS EXPECTED TO MOVE EASTWARDS SLOWLY. IT MAY
DEVELOP INTO A TROPICAL CYCLONE IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS
AND MOVE ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS OF GUANGDONG. HOWEVER,
THERE ARE UNCERTAINTIES IN ITS TRACK AND DEVELOPMENT. THE
OBSERVATORY WILL CLOSELY MONITOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE AND ITS IMPACT ON LOCAL WEATHER.

HOT WEATHER MIGHT CAUSE ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS. THE PUBLIC
SHOULD STAY ON THE ALERT AND DRINK MORE WATER.
