TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING BULLETIN (SIGNAL NO. 1)


 

TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING BULLETIN
 
HERE IS THE LATEST TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING BULLETIN ISSUED
BY THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY.
 
THE STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1 IS IN FORCE.
 
THIS MEANS THAT A TROPICAL CYCLONE NOW CENTRED WITHIN ABOUT
800 KILOMETRES OF HONG KONG MAY AFFECT US.
 
AT 8 A.M., TYPHOON DANAS WAS ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT 420
KILOMETRES EAST-SOUTHEAST OF HONG KONG (NEAR 21.4 DEGREES
NORTH 118.1 DEGREES EAST). IT IS FORECAST TO MOVE NORTH
SLOWLY AT FIRST, AND TRACK NORTHEAST AT ABOUT 18 KILOMETRES
PER HOUR LATER IN THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF THE VICINITY OF
TAIWAN STRAIT TO THE WESTERN COAST OF TAIWAN.

 

DANAS WILL SKIRT AROUND 400 TO 500 KILOMETRES TO THE EAST
OF HONG KONG IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE STANDBY SIGNAL, NO.
1 WILL REMAIN IN FORCE AT LEAST UNTIL EARLY AFTERNOON
TODAY. WHEN DANAS ACCELERATES NORTHEASTWARDS AWAY FROM HONG
KONG STEADILY AND NO LONGER POSES A THREAT TO THE
TERRITORY, THE OBSERVATORY WILL CANCEL ALL TROPICAL CYCLONE
WARNING SIGNALS.
 
THERE ARE STILL SWELLS. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD STAY
ON THE ALERT, STAY AWAY FROM THE SHORELINE AND NOT ENGAGE
IN WATER SPORTS.
 
HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT HONG KONG TODAY
AND MAY TRIGGER SHOWERS AND SQUALLY THUNDERSTORMS. IT WILL
STILL BE VERY HOT ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

CHECKED.
