According to the present forecast, Tropical Storm Kujira will move eastwards slowly towards Luzon today. It will maintain a distance of about 700 kilometres or more from Hong Kong and weaken gradually tomorrow. Its direct threat to the territory is not high. Unless Kujira adopts a track closer to the coast of Guangdong, the chance of issuing the Standby Signal, No.1 is rather low. The local weather is expected to be persistently very hot in the next few days. Members of the public should pay due attention to physical conditions and beware of heat stroke.
