Scattered Thundershowers; Seoul's Apparent Temperature at 32°C

It is sweltering again today.

Heat wave warnings and advisories remain in effect for the Chungcheong provinces, southern regions, and Jeju Island.

Although heat wave alerts have been lifted in the greater Seoul area and Gangwon Province, Seoul's apparent temperature is expected to climb up to 32°C (90°F) today.

In areas still under heat wave alerts, the apparent temperature will rise above 33°C (91°F).

As surface temperatures rise during the day, shower clouds are currently developing, mainly around the greater Seoul area.

Thundershowers are expected to pour down in various places today.

Meanwhile, Jeju Island, where rain is falling along the edge of the high-pressure system, will see an additional 5 to 40 mm of rain through this afternoon.

On another note, Typhoon Soudelor, the 18th typhoon of the year, formed over the waters near Guam yesterday.

Next week's weather could be subject to significant changes depending on the typhoon's movement path and how much strength the North Pacific high-pressure system maintains.

Rain is forecasted for tomorrow, Friday, centering around the central regions.
