The high temperature in Hong Kong yesterday (16th) triggered strong squally thunderstorms. The rain in parts of Sai Kung was particularly heavy, and hail fell in Tseung Kwan O, which caused heated discussions among the public.
The sun is still shining in Hong Kong this morning, but it has become clouded at noon. The Observatory expects that Hong Kong will still be very hot today and tomorrow, with a high of 33 degrees Celsius in the urban area.
However, the vast area of low pressure near the Philippines will move into the central part of the South China Sea and bring unstable weather to the northern part of the South China Sea early next week, bringing rainy days around the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Until next Thursday (23rd) the 24th solar term "Autumn Equinox" will not be sunny. We will be generally cloudy with a few showers, and there will be sunshine for a short period of time until the next weekend.

The Observatory predicts that tomorrow will continue to be sunny and hot for part of the time. The highest temperature in the urban area will reach 33 degrees. Sheung Shui and Shek Kong will have a chance to rise to 35 degrees, but there will be showers in some areas, ushering in a hot weekend holiday.

The Observatory predicts that the vast area of low pressure near the Philippines will move into the central part of the South China Sea and bring unstable weather to the northern part of the South China Sea early next week.
The U.S. Global Forecast System (GFS) predicts that the low-pressure area will be upgraded to a tropical storm next Wednesday. When it passes over the sea on Hainan Island, it will have a greater chance of being upgraded to a severe tropical storm.
