DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 0.2. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS LOW.

 

A STRONG NORTHEAST MONSOON WILL REACH THE COAST OF SOUTHERN
CHINA LATER ON SUNDAY (17 NOVEMBER). DEPENDING ON THE
CHANGE IN LOCAL WIND CONDITIONS, THE OBSERVATORY WILL
CONSIDER ISSUING THE STRONG MONSOON SIGNAL BY THEN.
MEANWHILE, TROPICAL CYCLONE MAN-YI IS EXPECTED TO ENTER
WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF HONG KONG BETWEEN SUNDAY NIGHT AND
EARLY MONDAY (18 NOVEMBER) AND GRADUALLY EDGE CLOSER TO THE
COAST OF SOUTHERN CHINA. UNDER THE COMBINED EFFECT OF THE
NORTHEAST MONSOON AND MAN-YI, WINDS WILL GRADUALLY

NOVEMBER), THE OBSERVATORY WILL ISSUE A TROPICAL CYCLONE
WARNING SIGNAL BY THEN. 
 
BESIDES, THERE WILL BE A SPRING TIDE EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE
SEA LEVEL WILL BE PARTICULARLY HIGH DURING THE HIGH TIDE

AND MAN-YI ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY, THE SEA LEVEL WILL
GENERALLY BE ABOUT A FURTHER 0.3 METRES ABOVE THE SPRING
TIDE. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC PLEASE TAKE APPROPRIATE
PRECAUTIONS.
