The Hong Kong Observatory issued the No. 8 Northeast Gale or Storm Signal on Thursday evening due to the super typhoon Yagi.

The No. 8 signal is the third-highest warning under Hong Kong's weather system, which has five rankings for typhoons. The observatory said that the No. 8 signal will remain in force until at least noon on Friday.

Due to the storm, many public services and activities in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) have been suspended, including all school classes.

An outdoor light and music show across the Victoria Harbor in Hong Kong has been called off Thursday night. People have been urged to avoid visiting country parks.

Several airlines have also announced some flights on Friday will be canceled or rescheduled.
