Temperatures on Lantau, in rural areas to go as low as 8 degrees on Sunday morning
Observatory also says residents can expect one or two patches of light rain on Sunday at first, before things become drier with sunny spells
Temperatures on Hong Kong’s Lantau Island and in some rural areas could reach as low as 8 degrees Celsius (46.4 Fahrenheit) on Sunday morning, the local forecaster said.
The Hong Kong Observatory said on Saturday that minimum temperatures in Lantau and Sai Kung were likely to sit at 8 degrees and just a degree higher in Ta Kwu Ling the next day.
The forecaster added that Sunday could initially see temperatures as low as about 13 degrees in urban areas with one or two patches of light rain, but it was expected to become drier later with sunny periods.
For Saturday afternoon, it said temperatures over much of the city would be “5 to 7 degrees lower than on Friday”.
“The northeast monsoon is affecting the coast of Guangdong, and a band of clouds is covering the region,” the forecaster said.
