Severe Typhoon Mangkhut lashed Hong Kong on Sep 16, 2018, with the Observatory hoisting the highest No. 10 warning for some 10 hours. The storm packed winds of up to 189 km/h and gusts of up to 256 km/h as it passed about 100 km south of the city.
Damage was extensive in some parts of the city. Tens of thousands of trees have fallen and it will take months to clear the debris from the streets, parks, and beaches.
