Monsoon Rain Expanding Nationwide; Sweltering Heat to Continue Tomorrow

The rain saw a brief lull during the day today, July 4.

However, monsoon rain is set to expand across the country starting tomorrow afternoon.

Looking at the expected timing for the rain, precipitation will continue in regions south of Chungcheong until the morning, and by the afternoon, rain clouds will spread to the Seoul metropolitan area and inland Gangwon Province.

Through tomorrow, 20 to 60 mm of rain is expected in central regions and the Honam region, excluding the east coast of Gangwon, while 5 to 50 mm is forecast for the Yeongnam region.

The southern coast could see up to 80 mm of rain, and mountainous areas in Jeju Island may experience heavy downpours of over 150 mm.

While there will be many lulls in the rain until tomorrow morning, please be cautious as the rain will pour down intensely at a rate of around 20 mm per hour once it begins tomorrow.

Let us check the current satellite imagery.

The stationary front is currently located over the waters off Jeju Island. Rain will fall in the Honam region today, and the rain will expand nationwide starting tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the influx of southwesterly winds made it humid and sultry today.

The humid, sweltering heat is expected to continue tomorrow as well.

Tomorrow morning's low in Seoul will be 23°C (73°F), with a daytime high of 29°C (84°F). Due to the high humidity, the perceived temperature will be about 2 to 3 degrees higher than the actual temperature.

Rain is expected to continue across the country until next Tuesday, July 7, and the rain is forecast to persist in the central regions until Thursday, July 9.
