A NEW CODE
We have received from the Hongkong Observatory a new code of meteorological siguals which comes into force at Hongkong on New Year's Day. They are the same as those at present in use at Shanghai, and will be hoisted on the mast beside the time-ball a Kowloon Point for the information of masters
of vessels leaving the port. They do not neces- sarily imply that bad weather is expected. The signals are as follows:—
A cone point upwards indicates a typhoon to the North of the Colony,
A cone point upwards and drum below in- dicates a typhoon to the North-East of the Colony.
A drum indicates a typhoon to the East of the Colony.
A cone point downwards and drum below indicates a typhoon to the South-East of the Colony,
A cone point downwards indicates a typhoon to the South of the Colony,
A cone point downwards and ball below indicates a typhoon to the South-West of the Colony.
A ball indicates a typhoon to the West of the Colony,
A cone point upwards and ball below indicates a typhoon to the North-West of the Colony.
Red Signals indicate that the centre is believed to be more than 300 miles away from the Colony,
Black Signals indicate that the centre is believed to be less than 300 miles away from the Colony.
The above signals will, as heretofore, be hoisted only when typhoons exist in such pozi. tions or are moving in such directions that is- formation regarding them is considered to be of importance to the Colony or to shipping leav ing the harbour.
NIGHT SIGnals.
Two lanterns hoisted vertically indicate bed weather in the Colony and that the wind la expected to veer.
Two lanterns hoisted horizontally indicate bad weather in the Colony and that the wind is expected to back.
The signals are repeated on the flagstaff of the Godown Company at Kowloon, and also, by day only, at the Harbour Office and on M's Receiving Ship.
LOCAL STORM WARNINGS.
The Colony itself is warned of approaching typhoons by means of the Typhoon Gus placed at the food of the mast, which is fired whenever a strong gale of wind is expected to blow here.
NOTICE BOARDS,
Notice boards are placed at
Joint Cable Companies' Office. Ferry Company's Pier, Ice House Street.
Blake Pier.
Post Office,
Harbour Office.
Ferry Company's Pier, Kowloon.
WEATHER FORECASTS and STORM WARNINGS are exbibited on the above boards daily about 11 am., and also at other hours, day or night, whenever necessary. Informa tion of importance is also issued by "Express." THE CHINA COAST METEOROLOGICAL REGISTER is exhibited at the same places daily about noon, It contains observations made at Hongkong and at a number of stations in the Far East, together with Remarks, Weather forecasts, and information regarding the exist· ence and movements of typhoons based thereon.
SPECIAL INQUIRIES.
Masters of vessels or their agents may whenever necessary, call at the Telegraph
