TRACK, THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY WILL CONSIDER ISSUING THE
STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1 TONIGHT. UNDER THE COMBINED EFFECT OF

DAYS, IT WILL BE WINDIER IN THE SOUTH CHINA COAST. THE
WEATHER WILL ALSO DETERIORATE WITH SQUALLY SHOWERS. THE
PUBLIC SHOULD REMAIN VIGILANT AND TAKE PRECAUTIONS AS EARLY
AS POSSIBLE.
