Hong Kong is forecast to see temperatures fall to 16°C on Tuesday, 10 November, as a cold front and an intense northeast monsoon bring cooler, very dry weather to the city.
The Hong Kong Observatory revised its outlook on Sunday, lowering the expected minimum from an earlier forecast of 18°C, according to the South China Morning Post.
The cold front is expected to move across the Guangdong coast on Monday, 9 November. Northerly winds are forecast to strengthen as it arrives, bringing a noticeable fall in temperatures across the region.
Conditions could be cooler in parts of the New Territories. The Post reported that temperatures in Ta Kwu Ling may drop to around 13°C.
The change will bring a cooler and very dry spell after a warm start to November. Residents heading out early or spending time outdoors may want to keep an extra layer handy and check the latest forecast before travelling.
