The Observatory has stated that the chance of issuing a tropical cyclone warning signal is relatively low. This is unless Narra, a storm, edges closer to the Pearl River estuary. Currently, Narra is expected to linger in the vicinity of Beibu Wan and then turn northeastwards, moving closer to the western coast of Leizhou peninsula over the next couple of days.
According to the Observatory, Narra is expected to maintain a significant distance from Hong Kong. The weather forecaster also noted that another tropical cyclone, Gaenari, does not pose a high direct threat to Hong Kong.
Gaenari is expected to dissipate gradually in the vicinity of the Taiwan Strait on Monday.
