Autumn Rain Gives Way to Sharp Temperature Drop... Caution Advised for Cold and Strong Winds

Tomorrow (October 21) is a day to prepare for cold and strong winds.

Rain has been falling throughout the day today, mainly centered around the southern regions.

This rain will mostly stop by early tomorrow morning, but a little rain is expected in the central regions between early morning and morning.

The amount will not be large, around 5 mm, but caution is needed as winds will blow strongly.

With preliminary strong wind advisories issued mainly for the west and east coasts, strong gusts are expected temporarily across the rest of the country tomorrow as well, so facilities should be thoroughly inspected.

The rain will mostly clear up by tomorrow morning, and the weather will turn rapidly chilly starting from the afternoon.

Tomorrow's daytime high in Seoul will be 15°C (59°F), showing little difference from the morning temperature, and the evening commute home will actually be colder than the morning commute to work.

The morning after tomorrow, the temperature in Seoul is expected to drop to 4°C (39°F), marking the coldest weather so far this autumn.

You will need to dress warmly.

Looking at tomorrow morning's temperatures, Seoul will be 13°C (55°F), similar to today, but daytime temperatures, such as Seoul's 15°C (59°F), will drop significantly by around 8°C compared to today, especially in the central regions.

Meanwhile, close attention must also be paid to the movement path of Typhoon Champi, which currently maintains super-strong intensity.

It is expected to move northward after passing the waters northeast of Taiwan around this weekend.

Although its path remains highly volatile, rain is forecasted starting in Jeju and the southern coast on Friday due to its influence, spreading to regions south of Chungcheong over the weekend.
