Further details can always be given tor occan remeis on demand, by signal sigual from lighthouses.

The object of the code is to give at least 24 hours warning of a gale (Force 8 by Beaufort Scale, or 40-45 m.p.h, mean velocity by Dines Anemometer) and also warnings of expected changes in the direction and force of the wind. Qwing, however, to the uncertain movements of typhoons and to insufficient, telegraphio observations, it will occasionally happen that signals 2 to 5 may be displayed without a gale occurring at Hongkong. | or even Gap Beck, but the reverse is not likely to happen, except in the case of typhoons forming in the vicinity and ravelling rapidly towards Hongkong, or fata located typhoon increasing ita rate Fof progremion sbnormally.
