Thundery showers and cooler weather expected for the weekend

Hong Kong will be expecting heavy showers associated with a broad area of low pressure affecting the region from Sunday, according to the Hong Kong Observatory.

The observatory said the area of low pressure developing into a tropical cyclone remains uncertain, but with areas of showers departing gradually, the weather over southern China will improve in the middle and latter parts of next week.

Meanwhile, under the dominance of an anticyclone aloft, the weather in Hong Kong will be generally fine and remain hot in the next couple of days.

Hongkongers are likely to experience temperatures ranging from 26 to 33 from Friday to Sunday. Forecasters also predict it to be cooler on Monday, with a high of 24 degrees and a low of 20 degrees during the day.
