Tropical Cyclone Bulletin

Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Bulletin issued by the Hong Kong Observatory.

The No. 8 Southeast Gale or Storm Signal was issued at 10:15 p.m.

This means that winds with mean speeds of 63 kilometres per hour or more are expected from the southeast quarter.

At 10 p.m., Typhoon Kai-tak was centred about 270 kilometres south of Hong Kong (near 19.9 degrees north 113.9 degrees east) and is forecast to move west-northwest at about 25 kilometres per hour in the general direction of the coast of western Guangdong.

According to the present forecast track, Kai-Tak will be closest to Hong Kong in the next few hours, skirting within 250 km south-southwest of Hong Kong. Local winds will strengthen further. Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal No. 8 will stay in force for some time. The public should be on alert and pay attention to the latest news on the tropical cyclone.

In the past hour, the maximum sustained winds recorded at Tate's Cairn and Cheung Chau were 75 and 62 kilometres per hour respectively.

(Precautionary Announcements with No. 8 Signal)

1. Please listen to radio or watch TV for the latest weather information broadcast at the 15th, 30th, 45th and 58th minute of each hour. You can also browse the Hong Kong Observatory's web site for the information.

2. Complete all precautions in your home. Lock all windows and doors, fit bars into position and insert reinforced shutters and gates if they are available. Adhesive tape fixed to large window-panes in exposed positions will reduce damage by broken glass. Storm water drains should be cleared of leaves and rubbish.

3. Do not stand near windows on the exposed side of your home. Move all furniture and valuables away from these areas. Make sure you have a safe place to shelter, should windows be broken.

4. Since seas are high with swells, you are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.

5. Flights at Hong Kong International Airport may be affected by the weather. Please contact your airline for the latest flight information before departing for the airport.

6. Owners of neon signs are reminded that they should now arrange for the electricity supply to their signs to be cut off

vabbè contatta la compagnia aerea e senti che dicono
Io l'anno scorso mi sono trovato nell'occhio dell'uragano che ha devastato
centramerica e costa sud est degli stati uniti, però molti aerei volavano ugualmente,
va detto che mi sono dovuto rintanare in un resort per 3 gg, e che praticamente per la pioggia ed il vento
non si vedeva a più di 10 mt !!

Alla fine, manco 'na goccia

Porca zozza neanche gusto di finire nel cuore di un ciclone!

Comunque devo dire che anche io, tra Birmania, Laos e Thailandia, nonostante il monsoon time sono andato più che bene... ;-)
