The tropical storm Prapiroon over the northern part of the South China Sea has been intensifying, and was moving north-northwest in past few hours. According to the latest track forecast, it will make landfall at the Hainan Island, between early times and morning on Monday(22nd), remaining over 400 km away from Macao. However, under the influence of the outer rainband of Prapiroon, more frequent showers with thunderstorms are expected between tonight and tomorrow, with winds reaching wind force 6 with gust occasionally. The SMG will consider to issue higher tropical cyclone warning signals, depending on the latest track and intensity changes, before Prapiroon makes landfall. Meanwhile, tropical cyclone “Gaemi” will continue to develop over the sea east of the Philippines, and it is expected to move towards the sea east of the Taiwan region.
