(Bloomberg) – The central business district of Hong Kong and the outside airport was hit on Thursday by violent impacts and flooding of heavy rain, while the city again released the highest warning about the rain when the tropical storm poduel passed through the region.
Parts of Hong Kong received rain from midnight to 400 millimeters (15.7 inches), while flights were disrupted and schools closed the day. The fifth time was released from the black rain and violated the record, which was set at the beginning of this month after the city was flooded with an extended flood.
The signal was efficient for more than three hours before it was reduced to warning with red rain just after 11:00 local time. The floor continued to weaken as the system moves inland throughout China.
The storm caused extensive disruption of flight flights across southern China, while Guangzhou is the worst affected airport in the world from 10:45 in the morning for delay and cancellation, according to Flightware data. Shenzhen and Hong Kong also faced a number of flights.
In the morning for Chek Lap Kok, the region, home to a busy airport in the city, a serious warning of a rain storm was issued.
For central and western districts with dense and western districts, an exceptionally serious warning of a rain storm was also issued. The clock rate of more than 140 millimeters is expected to signal a clock rate and serious floods are possible. According to the railway operator, several metro outputs were closed.
Last year, the Hong Kong Observatory introduced a serious rain storm and an exceptionally serious rain storm that broke a number of records. The Bureau added that extreme weather will be more frequent in global warming.
As global temperatures continue to rise, Hong Kong is likely to experience a significant increase in its maximum clock, according to the projection of climate modeled by a team of scientists, including Jimmy Fung, professor at the University of Hong Kong and technology.
The recent downpours differ in Hong Kong’s script after an unusually dry first half of the year, which, according to the observatory, recorded less than half the usual amount. On Tuesday, Hong Kong received above average precipitation for this year.
Remic rainfall is typical of this time of year due to southwestern monsoon and flood that comes from tropical cyclones. The smallest month is June, followed by August, according to the weather data.
