Monthly Forecast for July 2025


Hong Kong is expecting:
1.
normal to above-normal temperature
2.
normal to above-normal rainfall



Additional information:
  1. A broad trough of low pressure is expected to affect the northern part of the South China Sea and the South China coast for most of the time in July 2025, resulting in more moisture transport to the region.

  2. The chance of tropical cyclone occurrence over the South China Sea and the seas east of Taiwan is expected to be higher in the first to middle part of July.

Assessment (as of 30 June 2025):
  1. In the past month or so, sea surface temperatures of the central and eastern equatorial Pacific were near normal on the whole. Based on the latest oceanic observations as well as forecasts by a number of climate models around the world, the sea surface temperatures of the central and eastern equatorial Pacific are expected to remain near normal for the rest of this summer and the autumn this year.

  2. Taking into consideration the impacts of global warming and the latest ENSO status, different climate model forecasts and other objective forecast guidance, the temperature of July 2025 in Hong Kong is expected to be normal to above-normal, and the chance of normal to above-normal rainfall in the month will be slightly higher.
