Observatory may issue T3 signal between 5pm and 8pm
The Observatory on Friday said it would consider issuing the Strong Wind Signal No.3 between 5 pm and 8 pm, as Typhoon Koinu edges closer to the coast of eastern Guangdong.  It said with the circulation of Koinu being relatively small, the need for even higher tropical cyclone warning signals would depend on the storm's intensity and distance from Hong Kong.  The Standby Signal No.1 is currently in force.
