Storm signal No 1 was
raised over Hong Kong Sunday evening as a Tropical Storm Nangka edged closer to
the city on its way to Hainan.
However, the Hong Kong Observatory said the winds would not strengthen
significantly this morning, Oct 12.

It could, however, pick up later in the afternoon or evening, and strong wind signal No. 3 may be hoisted.
The storm developed earlier Sunday from a low pressure area over the central to northern parts of the South China Sea and became a tropical storm, prompting the Observatory to hoist Signal No.1 at 8:45pm.

Under the combined effects of the northeast monsoon and the tropical
storm, there will be heavy rain and thunderstorms over the coast of the South
China Sea, including Hong Kong, on Tuesday and Wednesday. It will be windy in
the affected areas, and seas will be very rough with swells.
Nangka is expected to move in the general direction of Hainan Island and
Indochina before it weakens and dissipates.

The Observatory said the storm will
remain at a distance from Hong Kong tonight and tomorrow morning, and winds will
not strengthen significantly.
At 12 midnight Sunday, the tropical storm was
estimated to be about 720km southeast of Hong Kong, with sustained winds of 45km
per hour. It is forecast to move west or west-northwest at about 18km per hour in
the general direction of Hainan Island and intensify gradually.
