HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 9 A.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 29 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 78 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 3. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS MODERATE.

 

THE TROPICAL DEPRESSION NOW OVER THE NORTHEASTERN PART OF
THE SOUTH CHINA SEA IS LOCATED WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF
HONG KONG AND GRADUALLY MOVING TOWARDS THE VICINITY OF THE
TAIWAN STRAIT AND SOUTHEASTERN CHINA. HOWEVER, THE TROPICAL
DEPRESSION HAS A SMALL CIRCULATION AND IT WILL MAINTAIN A
DISTANCE FROM HONG KONG. IT IS NOT EXPECTED TO POSE DIRECT
THREAT TO THE TERRITORY. THE OBSERVATORY WILL CLOSELY
MONITOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE TROPICAL DEPRESSION AND ITS
IMPACT ON THE LOCAL WEATHER.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE VERY HOT WEATHER WARNING IS NOW IN FORCE. THE PUBLIC
SHOULD BEWARE OF HEATSTROKE AND DRINK MORE WATER.
