Good afternoon. It's another hot day under sunny skies. Many regions will see highs topping 30 degrees. In fact, a heat wave advisory has been issued in parts of Gyeonggi-do Province, including Gapyeong county and Gwangju-si.

Seoul will also be hot with highs going up to 31 degrees. Daegu will also notice a big rise in temperatures. Daejeon, Chuncheon will hit 31 degrees.

Due to atmospheric instability, some inland regions will have passing showers with 5 to 30 millimeters of rain.

Despite the showers, strong UV rays will shine down on us. Expect an extremely high UV index today for some regions, including Seoul. Extra protection is needed so be careful if you have to spend a lot of time outside.

The heatwave will be short-lived as monsoon season starts this week in Korea's southern provinces, the heavy rain and dark clouds will pull down the highs.

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