HK experiences coolest day this autumn

Under the influence of a strong northeast monsoon, the Observatory recorded a minimum temperature of 17.5 degrees Celsius at 8:00 AM, with the New Territories experiencing temperatures one to two degrees lower. Temperatures across various districts were generally 7 degrees lower than yesterday.

According to the Observatory, the northeast monsoon is expected to continue affecting the region tomorrow, bringing a relatively large temperature difference between day and night. The morning in the New Territories will remain cool. Towards the latter part of this week, temperatures will gradually rise. By the weekend, under the influence of an upper-air disturbance, cloud cover will increase along with a few shower sweeps.

The Observatory expects temperatures to rebound on Thursday, reaching a maximum of 28 degrees on Sunday.

It is also expected that another replenishment of the northeast monsoon will affect the coast of Guangdong by the middle of next week.
