Typhoon Dan
Threatened Hong Kong for a few days but swerved away at the critical moment and then dissipated over Eastern China

Signal Summary:
Tropical Cyclone Signal No 1 (Stand By) was hoisted at 20:45 on Tuesday 5th October 1999.
Tropical Cyclone Signal No 3  (Strong Winds) was hoisted at 05:35 on Thursday 7th October 1999.
Tropical Cyclone Signal No 1 (Stand By) was hoisted at 16:45 on Thursday 7th October 1999 to replace the No 3  (Strong Winds) Signal.

All signals were lowered at 09:25 on Saturday 9th October.

At 05:00 on 7th October gusty winds were rattling everything and it seemed that Dan was almost upon us. As the day progressed, the wind soon dropped and we had a cloudless and sunny but hazy day.  In the afternoon, the Typhoon signal was lowered from 3 to 1.  It appears Dan has swerved to the right and will cross the coast well to the East of HK.
