NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. IT MAY REACH SUPER TYPHOON INTENSITY
AND ENTER THE NORTHERN PART OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA EARLY
NEXT WEEK. ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT FORECAST, RAGASA WILL
EDGE CLOSER TO THE COAST OF GUANGDONG MIDWEEK NEXT WEEK.
LOCAL WEATHER WILL DETERIORATE AND WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN
SIGNIFICANTLY WITH HEAVY SQUALLY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
SEAS WILL BE VERY ROUGH WITH SWELLS. AS STORM SURGE MAY BE
RATHER SIGNIFICANT BY THEN, FLOODING MAY OCCUR OVER COASTAL
AREAS. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE LATEST
