HOURLY READINGS

 

AT 9 A.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 29 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 89 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 2. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS LOW.

 

THE TROPICAL CYCLONE CURRENTLY TO THE EAST OF LUZON WILL
MOVE ACROSS THE LUZON STRAIT TODAY AND THEN IN THE GENERAL
DIRECTION OF THE EASTERN COAST OF GUANGDONG TO FUJIAN. BUT
ITS CIRCULATION IS SMALL AND ITS IMPACT ON THE WEATHER OVER
THE PEARL RIVER ESTUARY WILL NOT BE TOO SIGNIFICANT.
MEANWHILE, THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL PART
OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA WILL DEVELOP AND MOVE TOWARDS THE
VICINITY OF HAINAN ISLAND AND LEIZHOU PENINSULA IN THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS. THE OBSERVATORY WILL MONITOR ITS
DEVELOPMENT AND CONSIDER ISSUING THE STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1
TONIGHT TO TOMORROW MORNING. THERE WILL BE MORE SHOWERS
OVER THE COAST OF GUANGDONG TOMORROW AND ON WEDNESDAY.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE VERY HOT WEATHER WARNING IS NOW IN FORCE. THE PUBLIC
