Heatwave Warnings Issued; Showers Expected in Central Regions and North Gyeongsang

The oppressive heat continues unabated, day and night.

Even though night has fallen, the evening air remains sticky and muggy.

Heatwave warnings are currently in effect across most parts of the country.

Especially centered around the Yeongnam region, areas under severe heatwave alerts are expanding day by day.

Tomorrow, these regions are forecast to experience extreme heat, with high temperatures nearing 40°C (104°F).

While a heatwave advisory remains in effect for Seoul for the fifth consecutive day, tomorrow's daytime temperature is expected to climb to 33°C (91°F), and high humidity will make it feel even hotter.

In other areas, temperatures will rise to 34°C (93°F) in Gwangju and 36°C (97°F) in Ulsan.

Meanwhile, due to atmospheric instability, showers are expected in some areas of the central region and North Gyeongsang tomorrow.

Because these showers will be brief, they will do little to relieve the heat.

Except for occasional showers, there is no significant rain in sight for the time being, meaning day-and-night sweltering weather will persist.

Please take good care of your health.
