[Weather] Hot and Humid Thursday... Daytime Highs up to 35°C, Showers in Central Inland Areas

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Soyeon] On Thursday the 13th, the whole country will be generally hot and cloudy, with strong showers expected in some inland areas of the central region due to atmospheric instability.

Expected precipitation amounts are 20 to 60 mm in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, Yeongseo region of Gangwon, northern Chungbuk, and northern inland Gyeongbuk.

Where showers occur, there may be thunder and lightning accompanied by gusty winds, so caution is needed to prevent safety accidents.

Additionally, with the ground weakened by recent heavy rains, strong showers may cause damage such as flooding in lowlands and farmland, landslides, and retaining wall collapses, so caution is required.

The morning low temperature is forecasted to be 23 to 26 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature 28 to 35 degrees Celsius.

In particular, Gyeongbuk and Jeju-do will have daytime temperatures around 35 degrees Celsius, and other regions will also rise above 30 degrees with high humidity, making it very hot. Special care should be taken to manage health and prevent damage to agriculture and livestock.

Until morning, fog with visibility less than 1 km is expected in inland central regions, inland Gyeongsang, and the southern coast.

Airports located on the west and southern coasts may experience disruptions in flight operations due to fog and low clouds.

Sea waves will be 0.5 to 1.5 meters across all seas. Offshore wave heights are forecasted at 0.5 to 2 meters in the East Sea, and 1 to 2 meters in the West Sea and South Sea.

Until the morning, dense fog is expected over the West Sea and South Sea, so vessels navigating or fishing should exercise caution.
