Hong Kong to issue No 3 typhoon warning as Typhoon Toraji approaches

Hong Kong will issue a No 3 typhoon warning at 2:40 PM as Typhoon Toraji approaches the city. This marks the first time on record that four storms are active in the western North Pacific and South China Sea simultaneously. Typhoon Toraji has shifted to a more northerly path but has weakened slightly. Its outer rain bands are now affecting the Guangdong coast, with stronger winds expected in the Pearl River Estuary area. The Hong Kong Observatory noted that local winds will strengthen, with gales possible offshore and on high ground. Future warnings will depend on Toraji's intensity and local wind conditions.
