The Hong Kong Observatory has reminded the public that the city could experience heavy showers and thunderstorms with light winds, as a trough of lower pressure moves across the Pearl River Estuary.
“Locally, a few millimetres of rainfall were recorded over many places this morning, and rainfall even exceeded 10mm over the northern part of the New Territories and Lantau Island,” the forecaster said at 10.45am on Monday.
It also urged Hongkongers to pay attention to the change in weather.
Sunny periods are expected in the next couple of days, bringing hot weather and isolated showers, according to the Observatory.
It added that a relatively dry easterly airstream might affect the coast of southern China in the next couple of days.
