PRESS WEATHER NO. 119 - HOURLY READINGS

***************************************

HOURLY READINGS

 

AT 2 P.M. AT THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY THE AIR TEMPERATURE
WAS 32 DEGREES CELSIUS AND THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY 66 PER
CENT.
DURING THE PAST HOUR THE MEAN UV INDEX RECORDED AT KING'S
PARK WAS 10. THE INTENSITY OF UV RADIATION WAS VERY HIGH.

 

TROPICAL CYCLONE NARRA IS EXPECTED TO SKIRT THE VICINITY OF
THE WESTERN COAST OF LEIZHOU PENINSULA IN THE NEXT COUPLE
OF DAYS, MAINTAINING QUITE SOME DISTANCE FROM HONG KONG.
UNLESS NARRA FURTHER EDGES CLOSER TO THE VICINITY OF THE
PEARL RIVER ESTUARY, THE CHANCE OF ISSUING TROPICAL CYCLONE
WARNING SIGNAL IS RELATIVELY LOW. UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF AN
ACTIVE SOUTHERLY AIRSTREAM, THERE WILL BE SHOWERS AND
SQUALLY THUNDERSTORMS OVER HONG KONG MIDWEEK THIS WEEK, AND
WINDS WILL BE OCCASIONALLY STRONG OFFSHORE AND ON HIGH
GROUND. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE ON THE ALERT.
 
BESIDES, TROPICAL CYCLONE GAENARI WILL MOVE TOWARDS INLAND
FUJIAN TODAY AND DISSIPATE GRADUALLY. IT HAS A RELATIVELY
WEAK INTENSITY WITH SMALL CIRCULATION. ITS DIRECT THREAT TO
HONG KONG IS NOT HIGH.

 

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT:

 

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