As Tropical Cyclone Koinu moves closer to Hong Kong and with autumn just around the corner, temperatures are forecast to fall starting tomorrow. It will be significantly cooler on Sunday, Oct. 8, with temperatures ranging between 23 and 28 degrees.
This would be the first time since September 17 that
temperatures would fall to below 30 degrees.

However, showers are expected for the next nine
days, and there will be water surges at sea from tomorrow until Sunday.
Thunderstorms are also expected until next Monday,
with occasional heavy rain. After this, mild weather is expected with brief
periods of sunshine during the day.

But for today, the “very hot weather” warning was again in force, after the hottest October day on record was set yesterday.
The latest weather forecast shows Koinu has entered
the Taiwan Strait, after bringing heavy rain to the island for two days. It has
weakened since due to the monsoon, and is expected to maintain a distance of
around 500 kilometers or more from Hong Kong today and early tomorrow.

The Standby Signal No 1 which was hoisted last night
remains in force today. Higher signals could be hoisted depending on the
strength and the proximity of Koinu to the territory over the weekend.
