On Friday, the 17th, rain is expected to fall mainly in the Chungcheong region, the southern provinces, and Jeju, which is forecast to somewhat ease the recent abnormal heatwave.


According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, tomorrow's morning low temperatures are expected to range from 7 to 14 degrees Celsius, and daytime highs are expected to be between 16 and 20 degrees Celsius.


The forecast for morning minimum temperatures by region is as follows: Seoul 14°C, Incheon 13°C, Chuncheon 10°C, Gangneung 10°C, Daejeon 11°C, Daegu 8°C, Jeonju 12°C, Gwangju 13°C, Busan 12°C, and Jeju 14°C.


Daytime maximum temperatures are expected to remain at: Seoul 20°C, Incheon 19°C, Chuncheon 20°C, Gangneung 19°C, Daejeon 19°C, Daegu 18°C, Jeonju 19°C, Gwangju 17°C, Busan 18°C, and Jeju 19°C.


The Chungcheong region, southern provinces, and Jeju are forecast to be mostly cloudy with rain due to the influence of a low-pressure system moving from near Shanghai, China to the seas south of Jeju. In contrast, the capital area and Gangwon Province will be on the edge of a high-pressure system located over the East Sea, meaning these areas will be relatively less affected by rain.


Expected precipitation is as follows: Chungcheong region around 5 mm, Daegu and southern Gyeongbuk 5–20 mm, Busan, Ulsan, and central/eastern Gyeongnam 10–40 mm, Gwangju, Jeonnam, and western Gyeongnam 20–60 mm, and Jeju 30–80 mm (with some mountainous and mid-mountain areas in Jeju expected to receive over 100 mm).



Fine dust concentrations are expected to range from "good" to "moderate" levels in most regions nationwide.
