The tropical depression over the central part of the South China Sea is intensifying gradually and moving generally towards the western coast of Guangdong to Hainan Island.
Under the influence of the broad circulation, its rainband will bring unsettled weather to Macao. Winds will intensify and reach strong wind level at Beaufort scale 6-7 with gusts and occasional heavy showers and thunderstorms.
Meanwhile, as it is during the high phase of the astronomical tide, under the combined influence of the storm surge and persisted rain, flooding is expected to occur on 10th and 11th, from early morning to morning. The public are advised to pay close attention to the latest weather information and take precautions against strong winds and flooding.
