Farther details can always be given to coean vessels, on demand, by signal from lighthouses.
The object of the code is to give at least 24 hours warning of a gale (Fores 8 by Beaufort Scale, or 40-45 m.p.h., mekn velocity by Dines Anemometer) and also warnings of expected changes in the direction and force of the wind. Owing. however, to the uncertain movements of typhoons and to insuficient telegraphic observations, it will occasionally happen that signalt 2 to 6 may be displayed without a gale occurring at Hongkong,
