Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) is located in a coastal environment and is occasionally affected by sea breezes. High air temperatures relative to sea surface temperature, coupled with light winds or moderate east to northeasterly winds are favourable conditions for the development of a sea breeze at the airport. In the afternoon of 27 April 2000, sea breezes affected the airport and a sea breeze front was formed by convergence between the westerly sea breeze and strengthening easterlies. An aircraft landing at HKIA encountered the sea breeze front and reported wind shear with airspeed gain of up to 15 kt at a height of 30 m (100 feet) above ground. Surface wind observations and Doppler velocity data of a Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) allow quantitative analysis of the wind shear event. Shortly after the wind shear event, the TDWR also captured interesting interactions between the sea breeze front and an area of passing showers. This paper presents a quantitative analysis of the wind shear event and observations of the sea breeze interactions by the TDWR.
