HOURLY READINGS

 

AT 10 A.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 30 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 74 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 5. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS MODERATE.

 

ACCORDING TO THE LATEST FORECAST, TROPICAL CYCLONE CONSON
WILL MAINTAIN A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 700 KILOMETRES OR MORE
FROM HONG KONG IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE CHANCE FOR IT TO
POSE A DIRECT THREAT TO HONG KONG IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW.
HOWEVER, MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD STILL TAKE NOTE THAT
THERE WILL BE SWELLS IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
BESIDES, TROPICAL CYCLONE CHANTHU IS EXPECTED TO MOVE IN
THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF THE LUZON STRAIT AND TAIWAN IN THE
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. ITS ASSOCIATED SUBSIDING AIR WILL
BRING VERY HOT WEATHER TO SOUTHERN CHINA. HIGH TEMPERATURES
WILL ALSO TRIGGER SHOWERS AND SQUALLY THUNDERSTORMS. 
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE CHANGES IN
WEATHER. THE OBSERVATORY WILL CONTINUE TO CLOSELY MONITOR
THE MOVEMENT OF THE TWO TROPICAL CYCLONES.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

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