HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 2 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 31 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 72 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 4. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS MODERATE.

 

ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT FORECAST TRACK, TROPICAL CYCLONE
SAOLA WILL ENTER WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF HONG KONG LATER
ON WEDNESDAY (30 AUGUST). AS TROPICAL CYCLONE HAIKUI
LOCATED TO THE EAST OF SAOLA MAY FURTHER DEVELOP AND
INTERACT WITH SAOLA, THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE SUBSEQUENT
MOVEMENT OF SAOLA IS RELATIVELY HIGH. DEPENDING ON THE SIZE
OF CIRCULATION OF SAOLA AND ITS DISTANCE FROM THE PEARL
RIVER ESTUARY, THE OBSERVATORY WILL ASSESS THE NEED FOR
ISSUING TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING SIGNALS IN THE MIDDLE TO
LATTER PARTS OF THIS WEEK. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC PLEASE
TAKE NOTE OF THE LATEST WEATHER FORECAST.

HOT WEATHER MIGHT CAUSE ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS. THE PUBLIC
SHOULD STAY ON THE ALERT AND DRINK MORE WATER.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE THUNDERSTORM WARNING WAS ISSUED AT 2:05 P.M. IT WILL
REMAIN EFFECTIVE UNTIL 3:30 P.M. TODAY. ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO OCCUR OVER NEW TERRITORIES
NORTH.
