HOURLY READINGS


 

AT 9 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 30 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 76 PER
CENT.

 

THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE NEAR LUZON HAS INTENSIFIED INTO A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION. IT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE VICINITY OF
LUZON TODAY AND TOMORROW (16 AND 17 SEPTEMBER) AND ENTER
WITHIN 800 KILOMETRES OF HONG KONG. THE OBSERVATORY WILL
CONSIDER ISSUING THE STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1 BETWEEN
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND EARLY THURSDAY (18 SEPTEMBER).
 
THE TROPICAL CYCLONE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE IN THE GENERAL
DIRECTION OF THE COAST OF GUANGDONG AND INTENSIFY
GRADUALLY. HOWEVER, UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE NORTHEAST
MONSOON, THERE ARE UNCERTAINTIES IN ITS MOVEMENT AND
INTENSITY. AS ITS CIRCULATION IS RELATIVELY SMALL, THE
TROPICAL CYCLONE WILL ONLY BRING SIGNIFICANT IMPACT TO
LOCAL WEATHER WHEN IT GETS RELATIVELY CLOSE TO HONG KONG.
DEPENDING ON THE INTENSITY OF THE TROPICAL CYCLONE, THE
DISTANCE OF ITS STRONG WINDS FROM HONG KONG AND THE CHANGE
IN LOCAL WIND CONDITIONS, THE OBSERVATORY WILL ASSESS THE
NEED FOR ISSUING HIGHER TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING SIGNALS ON
FRIDAY (19 SEPTEMBER).
 
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE OUTER RAINBANDS ASSOCIATED WITH
THE TROPICAL CYCLONE, THE LOCAL WEATHER WILL BECOME
UNSETTLED ON FRIDAY. IT WILL BE WINDIER WITH SHOWERS AND
SQUALLY THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE WEEKEND. THERE WILL BE
SWELLS. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO THE
LATEST WEATHER INFORMATION FROM THE OBSERVATORY.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

THE VERY HOT WEATHER WARNING IS NOW IN FORCE. THE PUBLIC
SHOULD BEWARE OF HEAT STROKE AND DRINK MORE WATER.
