It was told by the weather forecast a day before that a Typhoon Nuri is coming straight to Hong Kong and preparing the people that Typhoon Signal No.8 will be hoisted. For anyone that doesn’t know, when Typhoon Signal No.8 and above hoisted (No.10 is the highest which is a disaster), all offices, shops and schools will be closed. Public transportation such as buses and trains will be at reduced service and frequency. It will be very unlucky for those who are coming or leaving Hong Kong by air planes, boats and ferries as the services will be halted due to the typhoon.
The weather seems to be very hot and calm at night. My colleagues and I thought tomorrow we will be seeing each other again in the office. It is not until 8.00am that they hoisted the Typhoon Signal no.8 which indicate most probably another lazy day off. I can felt the strong wind even inside the apartment which later the day at 3.00pm, they raised it to Typhoon Signal No.9 which has not been raised since 5 years ago. My colleague and I decided to go down to get some food. As most of the shops closed, we left choices of McDonalds, KFC and Pizza Hut only.
Lets have a look on the condition of the typhoon at Hong Kong 
Could you notice the banners and umbrellas are flying? *Try notice the old lady on the right trying to hold her umbrella walking against the wind*
Another poor old lady which dragged a few feets behind trying to hold on her umbrella.
Usually during these typhoon, the public rubbish bin will always be filled with “failed” umbrellas. *Can notice the purple one lying on the street on the upper right? The previous old lady decided to give up 
*
Now this is something special and truly remarkable. My colleague trying to walk backwards using his back against the wind to protect our McDonalds than flying away
This is something which we would not experience in Malaysia.
