Scorching Heat in Western Regions During the Day, 'Cool' in the East

The air you feel on your skin in the mornings and evenings these days is so cool that it almost feels like autumn has arrived.

While the heat has eased significantly, scorching daytime temperatures still persist, mainly in the western regions.

Today (the 12th), daytime highs are expected to reach 32°C (90°F) in Seoul and 33°C (91°F) in Jeonju.

Meanwhile, eastern regions affected by easterly winds will remain relatively cool, with Gangneung peaking at 25°C (77°F).

On another note, Typhoon Chan-hom will not directly affect South Korea, but it will bring in moisture, causing rain along the east coast and in Jeju.

Let us take a look at the expected precipitation over the next three days.

Ulleungdo is expected to receive 30 to 80 mm of rain, the east coast 20 to up to 60 mm, the southern coast of Gyeongnam 10 to 40 mm, and Jeju around 5 mm.

Skies nationwide will be mostly clear today.

High waves are expected, primarily centered around maritime areas.

Turbulent shower clouds are expected to frequently develop in inland areas for the time being.
