        The Observatory stated that according to current forecasts, severe tropical storm Yinxing will intensify into a strong typhoon on Thursday and move towards the Philippines' Luzon Strait. There is a high chance that it will then turn to the west and enter the central and northern part of the South China Sea. It will arrive late at night on Friday. On Saturday morning, it will enter the 800-kilometer warning range of Hong Kong; however, due to the influence of the dry northeast monsoon, the Yinxing will be weakened by then. Under the combined influence of the northeast monsoon and Yinxing, it is expected that from the weekend to early next week, the coastal waters of South China the wind will be quite strong.
        
        The Observatory pointed out that it is not uncommon for tropical cyclones to enter the South China Sea in November, but the path of Qiutai has always been erratic. The strength of the northeast monsoon, the position of the anticyclone high in the northwest Pacific, and the influence of the high-altitude westerly trough will all affect the path of Qiutai. There are considerable variables in the path and intensity. According to the definition of meteorology, autumn typhoons are not equal to autumn typhoons. Autumn typhoons refer to typhoons that form a companion effect between September and November. If there is no companion effect, they are just ordinary autumn typhoons. Typhoon.
        
        As for the impact of Ginkgo on Hong Kong's weather, it depends on its turning position and weakening speed. The turning position and weakening speed of Ginkgo depend on the cooperation between weather systems.
