The tropical depression in the sea area southeast of the Pearl River Estuary is moving away from Macao and is generally moving towards the eastern coast of Guangdong. Affected by its circulation, there are occasional heavy showers and thunderstorms in Macao, with winds occasionally reaching level 6 with gusts. Therefore, the Tropical Cyclone Warning signal No.3 will remain in effect before 5 am tomorrow. When the tropical depression further moves away from Macao, the possibility of Macao being affected by strong winds will be lower, and SMG will then consider issuing Tropical Cyclone Warning signal No.1 at that time. The public are advised to pay close attention to the change in weather and the latest storm news.
On the other hand, the possibility of flooding caused by storm surge is low since the astronomical tide level is low around these days. However, the public should still pay attention to the possibility of flooding caused by heavy rains.
Remarks: The probabilities of issuing severe weather warning signals for the next one or two days are provided in the table. Public can learn the possibility of being affected by the tropical cyclone over the specific period of time in Macao so that necessary precautions can be well prepared earlier. Please keep notice of our latest information.
