Temperatures in Hong Kong are set to dip again early next week to as low as 13 degrees Celsius (55 Fahrenheit) as a cold front edges closer to the city.
According to the latest forecast by the Hong Kong Observatory, it will be relatively warm and sunny over the weekend with the mercury registering between 18 and 23 degrees, before the temperature plunges again on Monday.
“A cold front is expected to move across the coast of southern China on Monday. It will become cool with one or two rain patches over the region,” the forecaster said on Friday.
“It will be cold in the morning over inland areas.”
The temperatures will drop to between 15 and 19 degrees on Monday, dip further to as low as 13 degrees the next day, then gradually rise to between 16 and 20 degrees next Sunday.
The forecaster said the associated northeast monsoon would be gradually replaced by an easterly airstream next week, leading to cloudier and windy weather over the coast of Guangdong in the middle and latter parts of the week.
