The Observatory launches the Beta Version of Greater Pearl River Delta Weather Warning Webpage
6 August 2010
|
With the rapid development of the Greater Pearl River Delta, people are travelling more frequently in the region. To provide weather warning information for people on the move in this region, the Hong Kong Observatory worked together with the Guangdong Meteorological Bureau and the Macao Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau to develop a portal webpage showing weather warning information for the purpose of disaster prevention and mitigation.
The portal webpage has started operational trial since6 August 2010. It incorporates real-time weather warning information from 11 cities, viz. Hong Kong, Macao, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Dongguan, Zhuhai, Zhongshan, Huizhou, Foshan, Jiangmen and Zhaoqing, in the Greater Pearl River Delta region. As the weather warning systems in Hong Kong, Macao and the Mainland are different from each other, the portal webpage also provides a guide to the weather warning signals for all the cities in the region.
