The Observatory said that the alert signal No. 1 will be maintained for a period of time this morning.
The tropical depression moves slowly and strengthens slightly.
Unless the tropical depression takes a path closer to Hong Kong, there is a lower chance that the wind in Hong Kong will increase significantly in the morning.
The rainbands associated with Chapaka will occasionally bring heavy showers and squalls to Hong Kong today.

Depending on local wind changes, the Observatory will consider whether to issue the No. 3 strong wind signal from later this afternoon to tomorrow morning.
The Observatory predicts that the weather in Hong Kong will be cloudy today, with showers and squally winds, and sometimes heavy rain and thunderstorms.
The highest temperature is about 29 degrees.
Blowing moderately until fresh east to southeast winds, strong winds occasionally blow offshore.
