The Hong Kong Observatory has issued a warning regarding Tropical Storm Yinxing, known as Marce in the Philippines, which is expected to enter the 800-kilometer warning zone of Hong Kong by 2 AM on November 9. Currently, the storm is located approximately 1,450 kilometers east-southeast of Manila and is moving northwest at about 30 kilometers per hour towards the Luzon Strait.

Yinxing is the 13th tropical cyclone to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR), where it has been designated the name Marce by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). As of 4 AM today, it has sustained winds of 65 km/h and gusts reaching up to 80 km/h, positioned 935 kilometers east of Eastern Visayas. Although no tropical cyclone wind signals have been raised in the Philippines, Tropical Cyclone Wind Signal No. 1 may be issued for parts of Cagayan on Tuesday.


As the storm approaches Hong Kong, it is expected to strengthen into a typhoon. However, the Observatory has warned that the storm's trajectory and development remain uncertain.



Currently, the region is experiencing the effects of the northeast monsoon, resulting in cloudy conditions along the western coast of Guangdong. Today's weather forecast for Hong Kong predicts sunny intervals with some rain patches this morning and tonight, with maximum temperatures reaching around 29 degrees Celsius. Moderate east to northeasterly winds will be present, occasionally freshening offshore.


In the coming days, Hong Kong's weather is anticipated to improve, becoming fine and dry with slightly cooler mornings as the week progresses. A dry replenishment of the northeast monsoon is expected by midweek, which will bring additional changes to the local climate.





熱帶風暴燕興(馬茲)接近香港


香港天文台已發出警告,熱帶風暴燕興,即在菲律賓稱為馬茲的風暴,預計將於11月9日凌晨2時進入距香港800公里的警告區域。該風暴目前位於馬尼拉東南約1450公里處,正以每小時約30公里的速度向西北方向移動,目標是魯尊海峽。


燕興是進入菲律賓責任區(PAR)的第13個熱帶氣旋,菲律賓大氣地球物理和天文服務管理局(PAGASA)已為其命名為馬茲。截至今天上午4時,馬茲的最大持續風速為每小時65公里,陣風可達每小時80公里,位置位於東維薩亞斯以東935公里。雖然在菲律賓尚未發出熱帶氣旋風訊號,但可能會在星期二為卡加延省的部分地區懸掛熱帶氣旋風訊號第一號。


隨著風暴接近香港,預計會增強為颱風。然而,天文台警告說,風暴的路徑和後續發展仍然不確定。


目前,該地區受到東北季風的影響,導致廣東西岸出現多雲的天氣。今天香港的天氣預報顯示,早上和晚上有陽光間歇及少量雨,最高氣溫預計可達29度 Celsius。東至東北風會持續,偶爾在海上會變得較為清新。


在接下來的幾天中,預計香港的天氣將改善,轉為晴朗乾燥,早上的氣溫會稍微降低。預計中週會有乾燥的東北季風補充,將帶來更多的氣候變化。
