- 6 years ago
Good afternoon. Searing temperatures are in store for us once again under mostly sunny skies.
Heat wave alerts remain in place across much of the country. In fact, it's been over two weeks since the heat wave alerts were issued, and they are still in place in Seoul.
It will be hotter in Seoul with an expected high of 35 degrees Celsius. Daegu and Gyeongju will continue to have unbearable heat at 38 degrees.
The heat will continue for the time being, but there is a chance that it could subside.
The 12th typhoon of the season, Jongdari, will move northwards to pass near Dokdo Island next Monday and it might have an indirect effect on Korea, bringing some relief from the ongoing heat. Jongdari is heading well to the south of mainland Japan... possibly bringig heavy rainfall and strong winds starting Friday.
That's Korea for you, and here's the international weather for viewers around the world.
