Early Summer Heat Returns Today; Scattered Showers in Eastern Regions

It was not very hot yesterday, June 25.

Today, June 26, early summer heat is set to return.

The daytime high in Seoul is expected to reach 29°C (84°F), which is about 5 degrees higher than yesterday.

The arrival of the monsoon season is being delayed as cold air remains in the upper atmosphere.

Because temperatures near the ground are high, the collision between the air masses is causing significant atmospheric instability.

Today, there will be scattered, intense showers in various parts of the eastern regions.

As the skies clear up, the ultraviolet index will be high during the day.

Strong swells are expected to hit the coasts of the East Sea, the South Sea, and Jeju Island.

Looking at the daytime temperatures by region:

Daejeon will reach a high of 29°C (84°F) and Gwangju will climb to 30°C (86°F), while the eastern coastal area of Gangneung will remain at 23°C (73°F).

The weather will be clear and hot throughout the weekend on Saturday and Sunday.
