Typhoon "Koinu" is moving slowly, and entered the 100 km range of Macau. Its associated zone of gale wind will affect Macau. Winds are expected to increase in Macau.

Affected by the rainbands of "Koinu", the local wind will continue to strengthen and reach wind force levels 6 to 8 with gusts today (8th). Showers will become more frequent and heavy at times today (8th) and Monday (9th).

Meanwhile, Blue storm surge warning is in effect. There may be flooding below 0.5 meters caused by a storm surge in low-lying areas between midnight and morning on Monday (9th).

As "Koinu" may take a more northerly path, the possibility of issuing a higher Tropical Cyclone Signal and Yellow storm surge warning cannot be ruled out. The public is advised to pay attention to the latest weather information.

Remarks: The probabilities of issuing severe weather warning signals for the next one or two days are provided in the table. Public can learn the possibility of being affected by the tropical cyclone over the specific period of time in Macao so that necessary precautions can be well prepared earlier. Please keep notice of our latest information.
