HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 7 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 29 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 62 PER
CENT.

 

UNDER THE COMBINED EFFECT OF THE NORTHEAST MONSOON AND
TROPICAL CYCLONE KOMPASU, LOCAL WINDS ARE GENERALLY FRESH
NORTHERLIES, STRONG OFFSHORE. ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT
FORECAST TRACK, KOMPASU WILL COME WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF
HONG KONG OVERNIGHT TONIGHT (11 OCTOBER). THE OBSERVATORY
WILL ISSUE THE STRONG WIND SIGNAL, NO. 3, TO REPLACE THE
STRONG MONSOON SIGNAL SHORTLY AFTERWARDS. MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC ARE REMINDED TO NOTE THE LATEST WEATHER INFORMATION
BEFORE DEPARTING TOMORROW MORNING (12 OCTOBER). UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF A DRY NORTHEAST MONSOON, THE WEATHER IS
CURRENTLY FINE IN HONG KONG, BUT WITH KOMPASU MOVING ACROSS
THE NORTHERN PART OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA AND EDGING CLOSER
TO HONG KONG, THE LOCAL WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO DETERIORATE
LATER TOMORROW.  WINDS MAY ALSO FURTHER STRENGTHEN. KOMPASU
IS EXPECTED TO SKIRT AROUND 400 KILOMETRES TO THE SOUTH OF
THE TERRITORY EARLY ON WEDNESDAY. WINDS MAY REACH GALE
FORCE OVER SOME AREAS IN THE TERRITORY AND THERE MAY BE
WIDESPREAD RAINSTORMS WITH SQUALLS.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE STRONG MONSOON SIGNAL HAS BEEN ISSUED.
