In the Seoul metropolitan area and Gangwon Yeongseo region, humidity will increase, causing the highest perceived temperature to rise to around 31 degrees Celsius, making it feel hot.

According to the Korea Meteorological Administration and others, very heavy rain with hourly rates of 30 to 50 mm is expected in the Seoul metropolitan area, Chungnam region, Gangwon Province, Chungbuk, Gyeongbuk region, Jeolla region, Gyeongnam region, and Jeju Island between the 29th and 30th. The expected rainfall over the two days from the 29th to 30th is 50 to 100 mm (with some areas exceeding 120 mm) in southern Gyeonggi, central and southern inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, Chungcheong region, and Jeolla region.

During the same period, Seoul, Incheon, northern Gyeonggi, northern inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, and the Gyeongsang region are forecasted to receive 30 to 80 mm of rain. Some places such as Busan, the southern coast of Gyeongnam, near Jirisan, northern inland Gyeongbuk, and northeastern mountainous areas of Gyeongbuk may receive over 100 mm of rain.

Except for northern Jeju Island, other parts of Jeju are expected to receive 50 to 100 mm of rain (with mountainous areas exceeding 200 mm), and the mid-mountainous areas may see over 150 mm of rain. Northern Jeju and the West Sea 5 Islands region will receive 20 to 60 mm of rain.

The morning low temperatures are forecasted to be between 17 and 23 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs between 24 and 32 degrees Celsius. Fine dust levels are expected to be from 'Good' to 'Moderate' across all regions due to smooth atmospheric dispersion and the influence of precipitation.

Sea waves will range from 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the East Sea, West Sea, and South Sea coastal waters. In the offshore waters (about 200 km from the coastline), wave heights are predicted to be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 4.0 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 3.5 meters in the South Sea.
