Special care needed in sun and strong heat 060519

Good morning. Heat wave advisories have been expanded to more areas. Those of you in the southern parts of the country will need to brace for another sweltering day with highs hovering around 33 degrees Celsius.

It's another hot and mostly sunny day. Daegu and Gyeongju will be blistering hot at 34 degrees.

Strong sunshine will lead to very strong UV rays... especially along some parts of the east coast, ozone levels will also reach unhealthy levels... with Jeollanam-do Province being the worst affected area.

So we'll need to take special care in the sun today. Drink plenty of water, find shade frequently and wear loose fitting clothing.

Relief from the heat is on the way. It will be as warm tomorrow, which is Memorial Day here in Korea, a national holiday. Welcome showers on Thursday night will bring relief to the country.

That's Korea for you and here's the international weather for viewers around the world.
