Typhoon Hagupit at Cheung Chau

Some video I shot, as Typhoon Hagupit neared Hong Kong yesterday afternoon (winds increased quickly; but strongest winds – to max 10 minute average of almost 118km/hr, ie hurricane force, were overnight):

Looking at tide guage info via internet last night, saw there was storm surge across much of Hong Kong, often 1m or more above forecast, including Cheung Chau. This was evidently responsible for some damage on Cheung Chau, evident this morning – when winds still fresh, and still some heavy rain:
