Good afternoon. It's forecast to be hotter and sunnier than Monday. Heat wave advisories have been expanded to more areas, including Seoul, for the second time this year. High humidity, sweltering heat and strong UV rays will make you feel uncomfortable in the afternoon.

Be extra careful on a hot day like today, by drinking water, even if you don't feel thirsty. Take a bottle with you. Also being stuck in hot cars even for minutes can be dangerous, never leave kids or pets in cars.

Daily highs in most areas will be a couple notches higher, hovering above 33 degrees Celsius by the afternoon, while Busan and Jeju will have bearable afternoon highs at 26 and 27.

The heat will ease tomorrow as monsoon season kicks off in southern provinces and we will see frequent monsoon rain throughout the weekend.

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