It's typhoon season, but you never know.  It might be sunny the entire time you're here.

Generally typhoon season should end by now or latest November. You can check with some hotel staff for any must do and must see things around HK. I personally think the peak and the big Buddha is pretty good. If you like hiking you can do it on the way up and down the big Buddha.

There are 3 typhoons on the way right now.  It's definitely still typhoon season.
