On Monday, the 12th, the weather will be partly cloudy across the country, with showers expected in some areas, particularly in the central regions, starting in the afternoon. Daytime temperatures are forecasted to reach a high of 28°C, which is above average.


According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, showers are predicted from the afternoon to evening on the 12th in Seoul, Incheon, Gyeonggi, inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, Daejeon, Sejong, inland Chungcheongnam-do, Chungbuk, eastern Jeonbuk, and northern inland and northeastern mountainous areas of Gyeongbuk.


The expected rainfall is between 5 to 10mm, with variations possible due to the localized nature of showers.


Jeju Island will experience cloudy weather with occasional rain. The expected rainfall from the 11th to the 13th is between 5 to 60mm.


Morning low temperatures are expected to range from 13 to 20°C, while daytime highs will be between 22 to 28°C.


In major cities, morning low temperatures are forecasted as follows: Seoul 17°C, Incheon 18°C, Chuncheon 14°C, Gangneung 16°C, Daejeon 16°C, Daegu 17°C, Jeonju 17°C, Gwangju 17°C, Busan 20°C, and Jeju 22°C.

Drivers should exercise caution in areas experiencing rain, as visibility may be reduced and road surfaces could become slippery. Additionally, the dry weather in the central regions necessitates vigilance against fire hazards.


Strong winds and thunderstorms may occur over the southern seas and around Jeju Island. During high tide, sea levels may rise above normal, so low-lying coastal areas should be prepared for possible flooding.


Air quality is expected to be rated as 'good' to 'moderate' nationwide.
