Rook,
Whon local signals are displayed in the Harbour a Cone will be exhibited at the following stations --Gap Waglan, Stanley, Aberdeen, 8an Ki Wan, Sai Kung, Bhs Tau Kok and Tal Po
to notify the fact to native craft and passing ocean vessels.
Further details can always be givan to ocean vessels, on demand, by signal from lighthouses.
The object of the code is to give at lesen 24 hours warning of a gale (Force 8 by Beaufort Scale, or 40-45 mph., mean 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 insufficient telegraphic observations,, it will occasionally happen that signals to 8 may be displayed without a gale occurring st Hongkong, or even Gap Rock, but the reversa is not likely to happen, except in the use of typhoons forming in the vicinity and travelling rapidly towards Hongkong, or of a located typhoon increasing its rate of progression abnormally.
