The Hong Kong Observatory issued a black rainstorm signal for the second time in six hours on August 5, 2025, as heavy showers drenched the city. It was the fourth black rainstorm signal issued this year, breaking the city’s record for the most such warnings issued in a single year. A landslip warning was also issued, with authorities calling on members of the public to stay away from steep slopes and hilly areas. The weather forecaster says the North District, Tai Po and Tsuen Wan have been severely affected, and warned residents to stay away from watercourses. Some exits at several MTR stations, including Wong Tai Sin and Tai Po Market, were temporarily closed due to flooding. In Quarry Bay, flash floods surged down the hillside onto King’s Road.
