As “Lionrock” moves further away from Macao, the possibility of Macao being affected by strong winds will be lower, SMG will consider changing the Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal to No.1 in the afternoon depending on the situation. However, affected by the combined effect of its outer circulation and the northeast monsoon, occasional heavy showers and thunderstorms are still expected in Macao, the winds over the bridges are expected to be fresh and gusty. The public is advised to pay close attention to the change in weather and the possibility of flooding caused by heavy rains.
On the other hand, the Tropical Storm “Kompasu” which is located to the east of the Philippines is forecasted to move across the Luzon Strait into the northern part of the South China Sea in the next two days. It is expected its related rainbands will bring unsettled weather to Macao, winds will strengthen with heavy showers in the mid-week. SMG will closely monitor the latest situation. Public are advised to pay attention to the latest storm news.
