Hong Kong on Wednesday suspended classes, stock market trading and government services as a typhoon passed south of the city.

Heavy rain from Typhoon Kompasu could flood low-lying areas and residents should take precautions, the Associated Press reported as the Hong Kong Observatory saying.

The typhoon had sustained winds of 83 kilometers per hour (51 miles per hour) and gusts up to 101 kilometers per hour (63 miles per hour).

Winds were expected to gradually weaken in the afternoon, the observatory said.

The typhoon was expected to move across the northern portion of the South China Sea toward China’s southern island province of Hainan and then make landfall in northern Vietnam, the observatory said.

Earlier, Kompasu set off landslides and flash floods in the northern Philippines, leaving at least 11 people dead and seven missing, officials said on Tuesday.

Hong Kong Free Press reported that a man died after being injured during Typhoon Kompasu. The T8-signal storm brought severe floods and gales to the city just days after it was hammered by another tropical storm.

Hong Kong remained at a halt on Wednesday with the Observatory saying that the No.8 Northeast Gale warning will stay in place until at least 4 pm.
