The third typhoon to hit Hong Kong in two weeks is expected to grow stronger and will bring strong rains on Friday afternoon.
The Hong Kong Observatory said that it will issue a typhoon standby signal No. 1 in a couple of hours.
In the early morning, typhoon Mawar was located at the northeastern South China Sea and is expected to move towards the eastern Guangdong province according to the South China Morning Post.
The Observatory said in a statement that when Mawar comes closer to the coast of Guangdong, they will issue a standby signal No. 1 right away.
On the latest forecast, it indicated that the typhoon will take the northern track and will eventually make landfall on Sunday.
