In the past few hours, Fung-wong weakened slightly. The chance of having persistent strong winds generally over the territory is relatively low today. The Standby Signal, No. 1 will remain in force during the day today.

The outer rainbands of Fung-wong are edging closer to the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary gradually. Locally, there will be one or two light rain patches.

According to the present forecast, Fung-wong will skirt more than 400 kilometres to the east of Hong Kong overnight today. Meanwhile, local weather is expected to be dominated by the northeast monsoon gradually. 

When Fung-wong no longer poses a threat to Hong Kong, the Observatory will replace the Standby Signal, No. 1 by the Strong Monsoon Signal or cancel all Tropical Cyclone Warning Signals.

There will be swells. Members of the public are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.
