HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 9 A.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 28 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 86 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 0.6. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS LOW.

 

A BROAD TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHERN PART OF
THE SOUTH CHINA SEA IS BRINGING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
TO THE COAST OF GUANGDONG, AND THERE IS AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE LOCATED AT ABOUT 80 KILOMETRES EAST-NORTHEAST OF
THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY OVER THE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE.
ITS WIND STRENGTH AND CONVECTIONS NEAR THE CENTRE ARE
RELATIVELY WEAK. IT HAS NOT YET REACHED THE INTENSITY OF A
TROPICAL CYCLONE. IT IS FORECAST TO MOVE WESTWARDS IN THE
GENERAL DIRECTION OF THE VICINITY OF THE PEARL RIVER
ESTUARY TO THE COAST OF WESTERN GUANGDONG. WHEN THE AREA OF
LOW PRESSURE EDGES CLOSER TO HONG KONG, LOCAL WINDS IN SOME
AREAS MAY PICK UP WITH SQUALLY THUNDERSTORMS. THE
OBSERVATORY WILL CLOSELY MONITOR ITS DEVELOPMENT AND
MOVEMENT. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE
CHANGE IN WEATHER.
