Affected by the winter monsoon, the weather in Hong Kong continues to be cold. Yesterday morning (18th) the Observatory Headquarters recorded 9.4 degrees, the lowest record since winter; Tai Mo Shan even fell to only 0.2 degrees.
As the weather improves, there is a chance of frost in open areas under clear skies and light winds.
The Observatory issued a frost warning at 4:30 p.m. yesterday to remind farmers and related people that ground frost may occur on the highlands or the northern New Territories this morning.
However, in the early morning of today (19th), the temperature in Tai Mo Shan has been hovering around 4 degrees, and it is quite dry, with no frost scene;
Mr. Lam, who lives in Sheung Shui, learned of the frost warning issued by the Observatory yesterday. He packed tents, sleeping bags, and warm clothes in the early morning of this morning. He was "fully armed" and took a taxi to Tai Mo Shan. Unable to do so.
He plans to walk up to the radar launch station on the top of the mountain and wait until sunrise. "If it's too cold up there, I plan to open a tent and hide." He pointed out that he had seen a frost scene last year, and this time he thought the temperature was low enough, but he didn't know the humidity. Is it enough for frosting.
The Ouyang couple, who were traveling together, pointed out that there was no frost yesterday and today, and they just went up the mountain to let the dogs out as usual. Mr. Ouyang said, "It's not freezing today, because it will be freezing if there is no rain, and it will be freezing every day." Let's go with the strong wind!"
Tai Mo Shan dropped to only 0.2 degrees yesterday (18th) morning; it hovered around 4 degrees in the early morning of today (19th).
