Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Warning Bulletin issued by the Hong Kong Observatory. The No. 8 Southeast Gale or Storm Signal is in force. This means that winds with mean speeds of 63 kilometres per hour or more are expected from the southeast quarter. At 11 a.m., Severe Tropical Storm Tapah was centred about 180 kilometres west of Hong Kong (near 22.1 degrees north 112.4 degrees east) and is forecast to move northwest at about 18 kilometres per hour across inland Guangdong. Tapah is moving into inland Guangdong and will depart from Hong Kong progressively. Local winds are expected to weaken gradually. The Observatory will issue the Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 at 1:10 p.m. The rainbands of Tapah will continue to bring heavy squally showers to the Pearl River Estuary today. Gale force winds will still affect parts of the territory at first. 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. Under the combined effect of astronomical high tide and storm surge, peak water levels of about 3.0 metres and 3.4 metres above chart datum have been respectively recorded at Tai O and Tsim Bei Tsui this morning, about 0.6 metre higher than normal. The water level over the coastal areas of Hong Kong is expected to fall progressively in the next couple of hours. In the past hour, the maximum sustained winds recorded at Ngong Ping, Waglan Island and Green Island were 81, 80 and 74 kilometres per hour with maximum gusts exceeding 127, 93 and 105 kilometres per hour respectively.
