Today, Sunday (June 28), was marked by scorching heat.

The daytime high in Gwangju climbed to nearly 34°C (93°F), and Seoul also saw temperatures exceed 31°C (88°F).

The daytime heat is expected to continue for the time being.

Tomorrow and the day after, the daytime high in Seoul is forecast to reach 32°C (90°F), significantly higher than the seasonal average.

As the heat persists, please take extra care of your health.

Until tonight, there may be sudden, intense showers in some areas.

Please note that due to the nature of these showers, rainfall amounts may vary even within the same region, and hail may fall in parts of the Seoul metropolitan area and Gangwon province.

With cold air located in the upper atmosphere and high temperatures near the ground, the atmosphere has been unstable, leading to the frequent development of shower clouds.

Showers are also forecast for tomorrow, mainly in western regions.

Now, let us take a look at the satellite imagery.

From tomorrow dawn through the morning, dense fog is expected in some inland areas.

During the day, as the sun shines brightly, the ultraviolet index will rise to a very high level, and in some areas, it may reach a dangerous level, so please take precautions against UV rays.

Looking at tomorrow morning's temperatures, Seoul will start at 21°C (70°F) and Daegu at 18°C (64°F), while daytime highs are expected to reach 32°C (90°F) in Seoul and 31°C (88°F) in Daegu.

Rain is forecast for the Jeju region starting Wednesday.
