On the 14th, Gwangju and Jeonnam will be mostly cloudy, with scattered showers expected in some areas.


According to the Gwangju Regional Meteorological Administration, the region will be on the edge of a high-pressure system located over the seas south of Japan, which is expected to bring rainfall of 5 to 40 millimeters.


In areas where rain falls, temperatures may temporarily drop. However, the maximum perceived temperature is expected to remain around 33 degrees Celsius for the time being, resulting in continued heat and a possible issuance of a heat wave advisory. Morning lows will range from 23 to 26 degrees Celsius, while daytime highs are forecast to reach 31 to 33 degrees Celsius.



Waves in the coastal waters of the West Sea and South Sea will be calm at around 1 meter, and ultrafine dust concentrations will remain at a 'good' level. An official from the meteorological administration advised, "To prevent heat-related illnesses, please stay hydrated frequently and refrain from prolonged agricultural work or working alone."
