Observatory may issue T3 Signal on Sunday
The Observatory on Saturday said it would consider issuing the Strong Wind Signal Number Three before 6 am on Sunday, as tropical storm Talim moves closer to Hong Kong. The forecasters said the storm was about 570 kilometres south-east of Hong Kong as at 5 pm on Saturday and is forecast to intensify as it edges closer towards the coast of western Guangdong. "According to the present forecast track, gales associated with Talim may edge rather close to the vicinity of the Pearl River estuary [Sunday] night to Monday," the Observatory said. The Observatory issued the Standby Signal Number One early on Saturday morning, saying it expected it to stay in force for the rest of the day. ______________________________
