General Situation: Tropical Cyclone Mawar will move north slowly over seas east of Taiwan tomorrow, and then move in the general direction of the Ryukyu Islands and weaken gradually. Under the influence of its outer subsiding air, it will be persistently very hot over the coast of southern China in the next couple of days. Showers and thunderstorms triggered by high temperatures will affect the region. A trough of low pressure is expected to bring a few showers to the coast of Guangdong and the northern part of the South China Sea during the weekend and early next week.
