Typhoon Doksuri

On Friday Hong Kong was forecast to receive an almost direct hit from Tropical Storm Doksuri at around 10pm.   It was not a particularly strong storm but it is unusual to have one so close.

Typhoon flags 1 and then 3 were raised.  Before the storm arrived the air was unusually still as tugs towed boats into the typhoon shelters.
