After enduring a series of heavy rainstorms, the Guangdong coast will see a decrease in sudden rain starting tomorrow (Aug. 7), but a new tropical cyclone may soon be on the way. The Hong Kong Observatory previously forecasted that a low-pressure area located east of the Philippines could develop into a tropical cyclone. The latest update today (Aug. 6) indicates that this low-pressure area will approach the Luzon region tomorrow and may then enter the South China Sea, maintaining a weaker intensity and bringing unstable weather to the central and northern parts of the South China Sea.
According to the Observatory's weather forecast for August 9, there will be occasional showers and thunderstorms in some areas on the morning of the Beginning of Autumn (Liqiu) (Aug. 7). From the following day (Aug. 8), good weather is expected, with temperatures ranging from 28 to 33 degrees Celsius for three consecutive days, and sunny and hot conditions during the day. However, the weather will begin to deteriorate in the latter half of next week, as a high-altitude anti-cyclone moves north, leading to an increase in sudden rain along the southern coast of China.
Reports indicate that there is significant divergence among various weather prediction models at present. The artificial intelligence model "Feng Wu," which the Observatory previously highlighted as having predicted the recent heavy rain, anticipates that the low-pressure area will form east of the Philippines later this week. It is expected to cross Luzon and move into the South China Sea, passing south of Hong Kong between Wednesday and Thursday (Aug. 13 to 14).
