The Hong Kong Observatory on Sunday canceled all tropical cyclone warning signals as Typhoon Kajiki moved further away from the city.  

The observatory canceled the Standby Signal, No 1 at 12:10 pm and replaced it with the Strong Monsoon Signal, which means winds with a mean speed of 40 kilometers per hour or more were expected in the territory.

“Under the combined effect of a ridge of high pressure over southeastern China and Kajiki, local winds will be strong offshore and on high ground at first,” the observatory said.

“A few showers and isolated squally thunderstorms are expected today,” it added.

At noon, Typhoon Kajiki was centered about 660 kilometers south-southwest of Hong Kong and was forecast to move west at about 18 kilometers per hour across the seas south of Hainan Island.

The observatory said there will be swells and members of the public should stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.

It added that Hong Kong was forecast to have sunny intervals and a few showers in the next couple of days before the weather becomes unsettled again in the latter part of the week.
