The Increasing Gale or Storm Signal, No. 9, was issued at 1:40 p.m. This means that winds are expected to increase significantly as Nuri moves closer to Hong Kong. At 2 p.m., Typhoon Nuri was centred about 40 kilometres east-southeast of Hong Kong Observatory (near 22.1 degrees north 114.5 degrees east) and is forecast to move northwest at about 14 kilometres per hour towards Hong Kong. Nuri is expected to cross Hong Kong in the next few hours. Gales are affecting many parts of the territory. Winds will increase further. In the past hour, the maximum sustained winds recorded at Waglan Island, Tai Mei Tuk and Chek Lap Kok were 94, 78 and 76 kilometres per hour respectively.
If you are unlucky, imagine you just passed by the following street... Bear in mind that, the insurance will not cover you under the No 8 and above typhoon, so becareful. Stay indoor, don't go out like me.
