On Wednesday the 28th, a stationary front located over the southern sea near Jeju will bring rain to Jeju, Honam, southern Gyeongbuk, and Gyeongnam until the morning, then move further east. Some parts of Jeju will experience rain until the afternoon.


Jeju is expected to receive an additional 30 to 100 mm of rain, with some areas seeing more than 150 mm. Honam and Gyeongnam will get 20 to 80 mm, and the southern coast will receive up to 100 mm or more of additional rainfall. Southern Gyeongbuk is expected to have an additional 10 to 40 mm of precipitation. Jeju and the southern coast should prepare for gusty winds, thunder, lightning, and hourly rainfall of 30 to 50 mm until dawn on the 28th. Except for Jeju and the southern coast being affected by and then moving out of the stationary front, the entire country will be on the edge of a high-pressure system on the 28th.

Although there will be no rain caused by the stationary front, from dawn until the afternoon, the central region, inland Jeolla, and Yeongnam will experience showers accompanied by gusty winds, thunder, and lightning. Due to atmospheric instability, sleet may also fall in some areas for the same reason. On Thursday the 29th, a stationary front associated with a low-pressure system developing over the Shandong Peninsula in China will approach Korea again, bringing heavy and widespread rain nationwide. Rain is expected across the country on the 29th and 30th, and on Jeju and the southern regions from July 1st to 3rd.


The lowest temperatures on the morning of the 28th are expected to be between 20 and 24 degrees Celsius, with daytime highs ranging from 26 to 32 degrees Celsius. Most regions nationwide will see daytime temperatures rise above 30 degrees Celsius, and due to high humidity, the perceived temperature will be higher than the actual temperature. Especially in the southern Gangwon East Coast, Gyeongbuk, and inland Gyeongnam, where heatwave warnings have been issued, the perceived temperature will soar above 33 degrees Celsius.



The expected minimum and maximum temperatures for major cities are: Seoul 22°C and 29°C, Incheon 22°C and 26°C, Daejeon 23°C and 30°C, Gwangju 22°C and 29°C, Daegu 23°C and 32°C, Ulsan 22°C and 31°C, and Busan 22°C and 27°C. The ozone concentration in the Seoul metropolitan area will be at a 'bad' level on the 28th.
