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 7 P.M., SEVERE TROPICAL STORM FUNG-WONG WAS ESTIMATED TO
BE ABOUT 490 KILOMETRES EAST-SOUTHEAST OF HONG KONG (NEAR
20.5 DEGREES NORTH 118.5 DEGREES EAST) AND IS FORECAST TO
MOVE NORTH-NORTHEAST AT ABOUT 10 KILOMETRES PER HOUR
CROSSING THE NORTHEASTERN PART OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA.

 

FUNG-WONG CONTINUED TO WEAKEN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE
NORTHEAST MONSOON AND IS SKIRTING ABOUT 500 KILOMETRES TO
THE EAST OF HONG KONG. ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT FORECAST,
LOCAL WEATHER WILL BE DOMINATED BY THE NORTHEAST MONSOON
GRADUALLY. WHEN FUNG-WONG NO LONGER POSES A THREAT TO HONG
KONG, THE OBSERVATORY WILL REPLACE THE STANDBY SIGNAL, NO.
1 BY THE STRONG MONSOON SIGNAL OR CANCEL ALL TROPICAL
CYCLONE WARNING SIGNALS.
 
THE OUTER RAINBANDS OF FUNG-WONG ARE BRINGING ONE OR TWO
LIGHT RAIN PATCHES TO THE COAST OF GUANGDONG. THERE WILL BE
SWELLS. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ARE ADVISED TO STAY AWAY FROM
THE SHORELINE AND NOT TO ENGAGE IN WATER SPORTS.
