Typhoon Champi, the 30th typhoon of the season, is currently moving north southeast of Taiwan with a category 3 intensity.

While the typhoon will gradually change direction and head toward Japan, strong wind and rain will continue in the southern regions of South Korea and Jeju Island.

Strong wind warnings are currently in effect for the seas off Jeju and the southern seas, while heavy rain and strong wind advisories have also been issued for Jeju.

Until the day after tomorrow (October 26), strong wind and rain with gusts of around 20 meters per second will lash the southern coast and Jeju.

Looking at the current radar imagery, rain is falling mainly in areas south of Chungcheong, and heavy rain of up to 164 mm has poured down on Samgakbong Peak in Jeju so far.

Heavy downpours of over 200 mm are expected in the mountainous areas of Jeju and over 100 mm on the southern coast of Gyeongsangnam-do until the morning of the day after tomorrow, with rain falling intensely at rates of 20 to 30 mm per hour in these regions.

Let's check tomorrow's temperatures.

Tomorrow morning's low in Seoul will be 12°C (54°F), slightly lower than today, but the daytime high will rise to 24°C (75°F), resulting in a large daily temperature range.

Rain will continue in coastal areas until Monday morning, and temperatures are expected to hit their lowest points of this autumn next Wednesday.
