The red rainstorm warning signal has been issued by the Hong Kong Observatory at 6:00pm today. This means that heavy rain has fallen or is expected to fall generally over Hong Kong, exceeding 50 millimetres in an hour, and is likely to continue, the HKO says. Heavy rain will bring flash floods, and flooding is occurring or is expected to occur in watercourses. People should stay away from watercourses. Residents living near rivers should stay alert to weather conditions and should consider evacuation if their homes may become flooded.
