25 Oct 2024 / Hong Kong
Tropical Cyclone Standby Signal No.1 is in force for Hong Kong.
At 08:00 hours local time a.m., Severe Tropical Storm Trami was estimated to be about 740km southeast of Hong Kong (near 17.1 deg, N / 118.6 deg. E) and forecast to move west or west-northwest at about 14km per hour across the central and northern parts of the South China Sea.
Trami moved west-northwest steadily and maintained a distance of more than about 600km from Hong Kong this morning. Its associated strong winds are not yet affecting the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary.
The Standby Signal, No. 1 will remain in force until at least noon.
Under the combined effect of Trami and the northeast monsoon, local winds will be occasionally strong offshore and on high ground. However, as the prevailing winds over Hong Kong will mainly be northerlies, winds generally over Hong Kong will not strengthen significantly this morning due to terrain sheltering effect. The need to issue Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 thereafter will depend on the distance between Trami and Hong Kong and the change in local wind strength.
According to the present forecast track, Trami will move gradually towards the vicinity of Hainan Island. Local winds will weaken later on Sunday.
