Students with umbrellas are having fun at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul on the 2nd, when the monsoon rain is falling. According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, up to 83.7mm (Gunsan) of rain fell by 11 a.m. that day, 82.5mm (Buyeo) in the central region, up to 43.5mm (Pyeongtaek) in the metropolitan area, and 19.5mm (Gwanak-gu) in Seoul. 2024.7.2

Additionally, rain is expected to fall occasionally in Jeju Island from the morning of this day, and in the Jeolla region and western Gyeongnam between 9 AM and 6 PM.

Due to the stationary front and the low pressure developed over it and the strong southerly winds that brought in a lot of water vapor, heavy rain accompanied by gusty winds and thunder and lightning is expected to fall in most parts of the country for two days until the morning of the 5th.

The expected rainfall until the 5th is as follows: △30~80mm in the metropolitan area (over 100mm in many places in southern Gyeonggi Province), 20~60mm in the five western islands, △30~80mm inland and mountainous Gangwon Province, 10~40mm in the east coast of Gangwon Province, △30~100mm in the Chungcheong Province (over 150mm in many places in Daejeon, Sejong, and South Chungcheong Province, over 120mm in North Chungcheong Province), △30~100mm in North Jeolla Province (over 120mm in many places), 30~80mm in Gwangju and South Jeolla Province, △30~80mm inland Gyeongnam Province, Daegu and inland Gyeongbuk Province, 10~40mm in Busan, Ulsan, and the south coast of South Gyeongsang Province, the east coast of North Gyeongsang Province, Ulleungdo and Dokdo, and △around 5mm in Jeju Island.

In the metropolitan area, heavy rain of about 30mm per hour is expected from the night of the 4th to the morning of the 5th. In the Chungcheong area, precipitation of about 30 to 50mm per hour is expected from the late night of the 4th to the morning of the 5th.

The lowest temperature this morning will be 19 to 25 degrees, and the highest temperature during the day will be 26 to 34 degrees. Some southern regions and Jeju Island, where a heat wave warning has been issued, are expected to have hot weather with a maximum perceived temperature of around 33 degrees for the time being.

The expected lowest temperatures in major cities are: Seoul 23 degrees, Incheon 23 degrees, Chuncheon 21 degrees, Gangneung 25 degrees, Daejeon 23 degrees, Daegu 23 degrees, Jeonju 24 degrees, Gwangju 23 degrees, Busan 23 degrees, and Jeju 26 degrees.

The highest temperatures are expected to be 29 degrees in Seoul, 26 degrees in Incheon, 29 degrees in Chuncheon, 31 degrees in Gangneung, 31 degrees in Daejeon, 34 degrees in Daegu, 32 degrees in Jeonju, 32 degrees in Gwangju, 29 degrees in Busan, and 33 degrees in Jeju.

Fine dust concentration is expected to be ‘good’ to ‘normal’ across all regions due to smooth atmospheric diffusion and the effects of precipitation.
