Territory wide? Not much damage: nine reports of fallen scaffolding. Thirty five reports of fallen trees, and 22 reports of closed or partially closed roads. No injuries to speak of.
Forecast? Unsettled, with occasional heavy rain.

A tropical depression began to form in the South China Sea at the end of the weekend. On Monday, Hong Kong Observatory noted that the as yet unnamed tropical cylone was close enough to merit raising the standby signal Number 1.
Today, the strong wind warning Number 3 was raised. Tropical Storm Kammuri is heading northwest and will pass to the west of a little island during Wednesday morning.
Currently? It is the proverbial calm before the storm.
