  "summary": "The likelihood of a typhoon warning signal being issued in Hong Kong over the weekend is low, as tropical cyclone Kujira is set to weaken under the influence of Dolphin. According to the South China Morning Post, Dolphin has been downgraded from a super typhoon to a severe typhoon.\n\nAt least 18 flights between Hong Kong and Japan have been cancelled due to the weather conditions.\n\nThere is no connection between these developments and other news from Hong Kong, including the death of singer-actress Grace Chang, also known as Ge Lan, at the age of 93, or a recent court case in which a 65-year-old man was jailed for four months for indecently assaulting a teenage girl on a bus.",
