Here is the information on Tropical Storm Wipha at 11:00 p.m. yesterday:
Location: 19.4 degrees north, 122.2 degrees east.
At
10 p.m.
at the Hong Kong Observatory :
Air temperature : 28 degrees Celsius
Relative Humidity : 85 per cent
According to the present forecast, Wipha will enter within 800 kilometres of Hong Kong around midnight. The Observatory will issue the Standby Signal, No. 1 in the small hours of Saturday (19 July). Wipha is expected to intensify progressively and edge closer to the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary on Saturday and Sunday (20 July). Winds will strengthen gradually later on Saturday. Showers will be heavy with squally thunderstorms. The Observatory will consider issuing the Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 during the day on Saturday.
Wipha will be rather close to the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary on Sunday and there will be heavy squally showers and thunderstorms. Seas will be very rough with swells. Members of the public are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.
Depending on the distance between Wipha and the Pearl River Estuary, the intensity of Wipha and the change in local winds, the Observatory will assess, on Saturday afternoon, the need of issuing higher tropical cyclone warning signals on early Sunday. Members of the public should pay close attention to the latest weather information from the Observatory. The air temperatures at other places were:

During the past hour
the mean UV Index recorded at King's Park : 0.5
Intensity of UV radiation : low Localised Heavy Rain Advisory: Rain is particularly heavy in Yuen Long District and Tsuen Wan District which may cause serious flooding. In particular, severe rainstorm is affecting Yuen Long District with more than 100 millimetres of hourly rainfall fallen or expected to fall; heavy rain is affecting Tsuen Wan District with more than 70 millimetres of hourly rainfall fallen or expected to fall. According to the present forecast, Wipha will enter within 800 kilometres of Hong Kong tonight to early tomorrow (19 July). The Observatory will issue the Standby Signal, No. 1 by then. Wipha is expected to intensify progressively and edge closer to the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary and the coast of western Guangdong afterwards. Under the influence of its outer subsiding air, the weather will still be very hot in Hong Kong at first tomorrow. Winds will strengthen gradually later tomorrow. The weather will worsen with heavy squally showers and thunderstorms on Sunday. Seas will be very rough with swells. Members of the public are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports. The Observatory will consider issuing the Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 during the day tomorrow.
Wipha will be closest to the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary on Sunday. The Observatory will assess the need of issuing higher tropical cyclone warning signals at that time depending on Wipha’s distance to the Pearl River Estuary, its intensity and the change in local winds. Members of the public should pay close attention to the latest weather information from the Observatory. Though rainstorm warning has been cancelled, people should stay alert to the danger that may be brought about by river flooding. Please be reminded that:The Thunderstorm Warning has been issued. It will remain effective until 3:00 p.m. today. Squally thunderstorms are expected to occur over Hong Kong.The Special Announcement of Flooding in Northern New Territories has been issued.
