[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Very strong and heavy rain accompanied by gusts, thunder, and lightning is expected mainly in the southern part of Chungcheong Province, the southern regions, and Jeju Island.

As of 7:40 AM on the 13th, the Korea Meteorological Administration has issued a heavy rain warning for Jeju Island and a heavy rain advisory for some southern regions.

During the weekend, Jeju, Chungnam, and the southern regions are expected to experience localized heavy rain of 30 to 50 mm per hour. The total rainfall will also be significant. Some areas are expected to receive over 150 mm of rain. Due to geographical influences, the southern coast, Jirisan, and Deogyusan areas are forecasted to receive more than 200 mm of rain. Most of the rain in Chungnam and the southern regions will stop by tomorrow afternoon, while it will continue in Jeju until tomorrow evening.

Rain will begin tonight in Seoul, Gyeonggi Province, and Gangwon Province, and will stop by the next morning. The expected rainfall in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Gangwon is 5 to 30 mm.

After the rain stops, there will be no rain nationwide until next week, except for Jeju, where rain will return on the 17th and 18th.

With the rain, daytime temperatures this weekend will be around 30 degrees Celsius, lower than the previous day. However, due to high humidity, the perceived temperature will be 1 to 3 degrees higher than the actual temperature. The highest daytime temperatures are expected to range from 24 to 33 degrees Celsius. Seoul, where relatively less rain will fall, is expected to be hot with 32 degrees, and Goyang in Gyeonggi Province will reach 33 degrees.
