The Observatory on Tuesday morning said it would consider replacing the strong wind signal number three with the strong monsoon signal between 3pm and 5pm, as typhoon Nesat is forecast to gradually move further away from Hong Kong.

At noon, the storm was estimated to be about 480 kilometres south-southwest of Hong Kong and it was forecast to move west-southwest at about 15 kilometres per hour towards the seas south of Hainan Island.

Meanwhile, the Education Bureau on Tuesday announced that classes of kindergartens and schools for children with disabilities were suspended.
