Hong Kong sees sunshine again today, but the Observatory predicts that the low pressure area currently located near the Leizhou Peninsula will slowly move eastward and may develop into a tropical cyclone in the next two or three days, crossing the coastal waters of Guangdong, but its path and development are variable.
The Observatory predicts that the heavy rain and thunderstorms associated with it will affect the coast of South China and the northern part of the South China Sea in the middle and late part of this week.

However, ECMWF expects that the wind will not be strong. The air pressure at the center of the sea level when it was the closest to Hong Kong on Wednesday was 990 hPa, only reaching the intensity of a tropical storm.
The US Global Forecasting System (GFS) is also expected to be the closest to Hong Kong on Wednesday, and then move roughly towards Japan.
The air pressure at the center of the sea level on Wednesday was 994 hPa, which is also the intensity of a tropical storm.
