Hong Kong Issues Red Rainstorm Warning as Thundery Showers Are Expected to Last Over Weekend Hong Kong's latest bout of thundery showers has led to a red rainstorm warning, prompting concerns about the city's infrastructure and preparedness for extreme weather events.
While some may view the warning as a minor nuisance, it is a symptom of a deeper issue: Hong Kong's long standing vulnerability to severe storms.
In recent years, the city has been battered by numerous extreme weather events, including the 2018 Lantau Island floods and last year's Typhoon Mangkhut.
