Looks very disorganised this morning but many, including HKO (In their usual half assed way) are predicting a TC by Monday/Tuesday...There is a strong ridge of high pressure that would tend to push it south if it develops....anyway, let's have another look this evening.

How accurate is this forecast model though? What do those rather strange fellas on weather underground hk forum say? Let's have a look

My husband and I have been observing the tides along the south Lantau beaches lately. Much more turbulent wave activity despite sunny weather and calm breeze with more rips and undertows, high tides ebbing later in the day.....anyone here an expert on this on forum? Lived here a year now, and the calm seems to have become unsettled.

Here the weather forecast as issued at 12 o'clock Greenwich Meaning Time by the Ugandan Metrological Office.

They been up on the Air Ministry Roof and it pissing down with rain.

That the end of the weather forecast.
