Hongkongers should expect mainly cloudy skies accompanied by occasional showers and thunderstorms in the next two days, the local forecaster has said, after an amber rainstorm warning stayed in effect for 3½ hours on Sunday afternoon. The Hong Kong Observatory issued the signal at 2.20pm, with associated thundery showers bringing more than 30mm of rainfall to many parts of Hong Kong. The forecaster also warned of hail about 40 minutes later. The amber warning was cancelled at 5.50pm. “Though the rainstorm warning has been cancelled, people should stay alert to the danger that may be brought about by river flooding,” the forecaster said. The Observatory earlier said the weather was likely to remain slightly cooler over Guangdong province for the next couple of days under the influence of the northeast monsoon and localised upper-air disturbances.
