The entire country entered the monsoon season starting yesterday, July 1.

During the monsoon season, a stationary front moves up and down, bringing rain.

Today, as the stationary front temporarily moves southward, light rain of around 5mm is expected in the Jeju region until the afternoon before tapering off.

Forecasts indicate sudden, intense showers, mainly in inland areas.

Even if the sky appears clear, sudden, heavy downpours of 20 to 30mm per hour may occur.

Some areas may also experience hail, so caution is advised.

During the day, the sun will be strong.

The UV index is expected to rise to very high or even dangerous levels in some regions.

Please take care to protect yourself from UV rays by using parasols or wearing hats.

Let's take a look at today's daytime temperatures.

The high in Seoul will reach 29°C (84°F), which is about 3 degrees lower than yesterday's high.

Most regions are expected to see daytime temperatures around 30°C (86°F).

Tomorrow, Friday, rain will begin again in the Jeju region and is expected to gradually expand across the country over the weekend.
