Currently, the monsoon rain has subsided in many areas.

However, the stagnant front will move northward again this evening, and rain clouds are expected to expand to the southern parts of the Chungcheong region by tonight.

Today (July 4), rainfall is expected to be 5 to 30mm in Jeju, and 5 to 20mm in the Honam and Gyeongnam regions. The amount of rain in the southern Chungcheong and southern Gyeongbuk regions, where rain will begin tonight, is expected to be minimal.

During the afternoon, some areas in the Seoul metropolitan region and other parts of Chungcheong may experience showers of 5 to 20mm.

Although the sky will remain mostly cloudy, solar radiation will be strong during the day between the clouds.

Daytime temperatures will rise to 31°C (88°F) in Seoul and 32°C (90°F) in Cheongju, with the perceived temperature in most regions hovering around 31°C (88°F), making it feel sultry.

By tomorrow afternoon, the entire country will be under the influence of the stagnant front, bringing monsoon rain.

In the central region, the monsoon rain is expected to continue intermittently until next Thursday.
