Summer is hot and spicy, and June this year is especially hot. The Observatory announced today (3rd) that the weather review for the first half of this year was described as "abnormally warm", with an average temperature of 23 degrees Celsius, together with an average maximum temperature of 25.7 degrees, the highest since the record was recorded; and an average minimum temperature of 21.1 degrees was the same period. The third highest since record.

In addition, the weather in Hong Kong was much hotter than normal in the past June because the ridge of the subtropical high covering southern China was stronger than normal. The average minimum temperature last month was 27.8 degrees, 1.6 degrees above normal, the highest in June since record. The number of hot nights (temperatures of 28 degrees Celsius or above) last month was 18 days, the highest number of hot nights in record since July 1993.

The Hong Kong Observatory said that Hong Kong was unusually warm in the first half of the year, with an average temperature of 23 degrees and the hottest since record 2019. The accumulated rainfall in the first half of the year was 963.4 mm, which was about 12% less than the normal value of 1096.9 mm during the same period. The average temperature and average maximum temperature in June just past 29.6 degrees and 32.3 degrees, respectively, were the second highest in June. The 12 consecutive hot nights that started on June 19 set the record for the longest continuous hot night in June.

In addition, the Observatory also pointed out that there were plenty of sunshine in June, and the total sunshine in the whole month was 192.5 hours, about 32% more than the normal value of 146.1 hours. Despite heavy rains from June 6 to 8, a black rainstorm warning signal was issued. The total rainfall in June was only 397.2 millimeters, about 13% less than the normal value of 456.1 millimeters.

Under the influence of high-altitude anticyclones, the weather in Hong Kong was hot in the first five days of June with sunshine and showers. Affected by a trough of low pressure hovering along the coast of Guangdong, the weather in Japan Harbor deteriorated from June 6 to 8. Over the past three days, more than 250 millimetres of rainfall have been recorded in most parts of Hong Kong, while the rainfall in Tsuen Wan, Sha Tin, Tai Po and Sai Kung has exceeded 450 millimetres. There have been severe flooding reports in many areas in the New Territories and Kowloon.

The rain on the morning of June 6 was particularly heavy. The continuous heavy rain caused the Observatory to issue the first black rainstorm warning signal since May 2017. On that day, Hong Kong recorded over 14,350 cloud-to-ground lightning, the second highest record since the launch of the lightning positioning system in 2005. In addition, there is a water tornado report near the Hong Kong International Airport on the morning of June 8.

By the middle of the month, Hong Kong had its first tropical cyclone this year. On the morning of June 12, a low-pressure area in the Philippines developed into a tropical depression, which was later named "parrot" and intensified into a tropical storm. Under the influence of parrots, the winds in Hong Kong gradually increased in the afternoon on June 13, and the southeast winds were refreshed to strong winds at night, and strong winds were blown in the highlands. The Observatory once issued a strong wind signal No. 3. The parrot made landfall in Yangjiang City, Guangdong, later in the morning of June 14, and then gradually weakened into a low-pressure area inland.

As the high-altitude anticyclone strengthened, local weather was generally fine and extremely hot at the end of June, but there were showers in some areas.
