WUKONG is the sixteenth name in the tropical cyclone name list. It was contributed by China, and is the character "King of the monkeys" in the novel Journey to the West. This name was used in 2000 and 2006, with the former occurrence necessitating the #3 Strong Wind Signal in Hong Kong.

WUKONG is expected to move WSW along the low-level northeasterlies.

WUKONG lost most of its deep convections last night, and the low-level circulation centre is exposed. The storm is expected to weaken in an area of moderate wind shear and decreasing sea temperatures.

悟空昨晚失去大部分深層對流，現時低層環流中心外露。預料悟空將受中等垂直風切變及逐步降低的海溫影響而減弱。

WUKONG is now crossing central Philippines. At 14 HKT, WUKONG was centred about 370 km (200 NM) SSE of Manila.
悟空正橫過菲律賓中部。在下午 2 時，悟空集結在馬尼拉東南偏南約 370 公里 (200 海里)。

WUKONG is the sixteenth name in the tropical cyclone name list. It was contributed by China, and is the character "King of the monkeys" in the novel Journey to the West. This name was used in 2000 and 2006, with the former occurrence necessitating the #3 Strong Wind Signal in Hong Kong.
WUKONG will move W along the southern periphery of the subtropical ridge. The system is expected to weaken later and will then be subject to the low-level northeasterly flow that should bring the storm towards the WSW or even SW.
Current T-number: T2.5/2.5/S0.0/24 HRS
WUKONG intensified slightly last night but remains weak. The storm is expected to maintain current intensity as it travels across the Philippines, and should weaken later on as shear rises.
現時的 T 號碼: T2.5/2.5/S0.0/24 HRS
悟空昨晚稍微增強，但系統仍然較弱。預料悟空將於橫過菲律賓時維持強度，後期受較高垂直風切變影響而減弱。

Tropical disturbance 93W intensified into depression 27W earlier today. It intensified into a tropical storm and was named WUKONG this morning. At 14 HKT, WUKONG was centred about 830 km (450 NM) SE of Manila.
WUKONG is the sixteenth name in the tropical cyclone name list. It was contributed by China, and is the character "King of the monkeys" in the novel Journey to the West. This name was used in 2000 and 2006, with the former occurrence necessitating the #3 Strong Wind Signal in Hong Kong.
WUKONG is situated in the southern periphery of the subtropical ridge, and is expected to move W in the next 72 hours. The system is expected to weaken later and will then be subject to the low-level northeasterly flow that should bring the storm towards the WSW or even SW.
Current T-number: T2.5/2.5/INT OBS
WUKONG lacks convections in its southern periphery. The storm is expected to intensify slightly before or while crossing the Philippines, and again slightly when it enters the South China Sea due to favourable sea temperatures. Shear is expected to rise as WUKONG nears Vietnam, which should bring down its intensity.
現時的 T 號碼: T2.5/2.5/INT OBS
悟空南部較少對流。預料悟空將於登陸菲律賓前或期間稍為增強，而於進入南海時因海溫較高而再次稍為增強。隨著悟空靠近越南，風切或會提升並令系統減弱。
