HIGK WAZI,
The object of the code is to give at laset: £4 hours warning of a gale (Forca 8 by Beaufort Scale, or 40-45 m.p.b., mean velocity by Dines Angmometer) and also warnings of expected changes in the direction and force of the wind. Uwing, however, to the uncertain movements of typhoons and to insufficient, telegraphio observations, it will occasionally happen that signals 2 to 6 may be displayed without a gale occurring at Hongkong, or even Gap Rock, but the reverse is not likely to happen, except in the case of para typhoons forming in the vicinity and Batar. 21 m 10 3 travelling rapidly towards Hongkong, or
of a located typhoon increasing its rate Buz,
