Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Warning Bulletin issued by the Hong Kong Observatory. The Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 is in force. This means that winds with mean speeds of 41 to 62 kilometres per hour are expected. At 7 p.m., Tropical Storm Maliksi was estimated to be about 300 kilometres southwest of Hong Kong (near 20.7 degrees north 111.9 degrees east) and is forecast to be slow-moving at first, and then move northwards later at about 15 kilometres per hour, edging closer to the western coast of Guangdong. According to the present forecast track, Maliksi will make landfall at the coast of western Guangdong tonight to early tomorrow morning. It will then move into inland areas. The extensive intense rainbands to its south will gradually affect the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary. There will be heavy showers and strong winds over the regions. There will be occasional gale winds on high ground tomorrow. It is expected the Strong Wind Signal, No. 3, will remain in force at least until 6 a.m. tomorrow morning. Unless Maliksi intensifies rapidly or adopts a track closer to Hong Kong, the chance of issuing higher tropical cyclone warning signals will be rather low. Seas will be rough with swells. Members of the public are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.
1. Please take precautions now. Make sure objects likely to be blown away are securely fastened or taken indoors. Check if all windows and doors can be securely locked. 2. Drains should now be cleared of leaves and rubbish. People in low-lying areas should take precautions against flooding. 3. Seas are rough. You are advised to stay away from the shoreline and low-lying areas, and not to engage in water sports. 4. Avoid staying in areas exposed to high winds. Drivers using highways and flyovers should be alert to violent gusts. 5. Small vessels not yet in typhoon shelters should seek shelter without delay. Use heavy anchors and check that all deck fittings are firmly fastened. 6. Listen to radio, watch TV or browse the Hong Kong Observatory's website and mobile app for the latest information on the tropical cyclone.
三號強風信號，現正生效。 預料本港平均風速每小時41至62公里。 在下午7時，熱帶風暴馬力斯集結在香港之西南約300公里，即在北緯20.7度，東經111.9度附近，預料初時移動緩慢，稍後向北移動，時速約15公里，靠近廣東西部沿岸。按照現時預測路徑，馬力斯會在今晚至明日凌晨在廣東西部沿岸登陸，隨後將移入內陸地區，其南側的廣闊強雨帶會逐漸影響珠江口一帶，該區有大驟雨及強風，高地明日間中吹烈風。預料三號強風信號會至少維持至明早六時。 除非馬力斯迅速增強或採取較為接近本港的路徑，否則改發更高熱帶氣旋警告信號的機會甚低。 海面有大浪及湧浪，市民請遠離岸邊及停止所有水上活動。
三號強風信號－防風措施報告： 1. 請立即採取防風措施，將容易被風吹倒的物件綁緊或搬入室內。檢查所有門窗是否可以關閉。 2. 請立即將堆積在渠道上的樹葉與垃圾清除，低窪地區的市民應為防範水浸做好準備。 3. 海面有大浪，市民應該遠離岸邊及低窪地區，並停止所有水上活動。 4. 市民應避免身處當風地點。在高速公路或天橋上的駕車人士要提防猛烈陣風吹襲。 5. 未駛回避風塘的小型船隻，應立即就近找地方避風，下錨時應使用大錨，並檢查甲板上的裝置是否縛緊。 6. 請留意電台、電視台或瀏覽香港天文台網頁及流動應用程式有關風暴的最新消息。
