Yesterday (October 12), the temperature at Songwol-dong, the official observation station in Seoul, soared to 30.1°C (86°F), breaking the record for the highest temperature ever recorded in October.
With rain falling today, this unseasonably high temperature phenomenon will gradually subside.
Rainfall amounts are expected to range from a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 50 millimeters.
Mountainous areas in Jeju will see heavy downpours of over 80 millimeters.
In particular, caution is needed regarding strong rain from early morning until daytime.
Most of the rain will stop by this afternoon.
However, some areas in the Gyeongnam region may continue to see rain until late afternoon.
Once the rain stops, winds will blow strongly from tonight, turning the weather chilly.
Looking closely at today's morning temperatures, most areas will stay above 15°C (59°F) so it won't be extremely chilly. However, daytime temperatures, such as Seoul's 22°C (72°F), will drop significantly by around 8 degrees compared to yesterday, mainly centered around the central regions.
On Wednesday, Seoul's morning temperature will plunge to 9°C (48°F) accompanied by strong winds.
Please take good care of your health.
