THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE NEAR LUZON HAS INTENSIFIED INTO A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION AND IS LOCATED WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF
HONG KONG. ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT FORECAST, THE TROPICAL
CYCLONE WILL LINGER OVER THE NORTHERN PART OF LUZON IN THE
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AND INTENSIFY GRADUALLY. IT WILL THEN
MOVE IN THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF THE SEAS EAST OF TAIWAN.
THE TROPICAL CYCLONE IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN A DISTANCE OF
OVER 600 KILOMETRES FROM HONG KONG AND ITS DIRECT THREAT TO
THE TERRITORY IS NOT HIGH. LOCALLY, THERE WILL BE SUNNY
PERIODS AND A FEW SHOWERS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS. IT WILL BE
VERY HOT ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
