With the cessation of public transportation services because of the typhoon, which in the morning had been upgraded from a category eight to a whopping number nine, the only way to relieve my cabin fever was to storm out of my estate and to find my way over to Mong Kok, on foot. During the trip through barren streets and garbage-littered sidewalks, the wind kicked up enough to force me to seek shelter - that was exciting.
No. 9: Gale or storm force wind is increasing or expected to increase significantly in strength.
