Seoul Hits 33.2°C: Record High Temperature Broken Again in Just One Day

It was even hotter today, Tuesday, June 16, than it was yesterday.

The daytime high in Seoul reached 33.2°C (92°F), breaking the record for the highest temperature of the year for the second consecutive day. This sweltering heat, with temperatures hovering around 32°C (90°F), is expected to continue through the end of the week.

Meanwhile, as the air in the lower atmosphere heats up rapidly during the day and meets cooler air in the upper atmosphere, frequent showers are expected.

Showers may pass through parts of the central-northern region, including Seoul, as well as the Honam region until this evening. With more showers forecast for various areas tomorrow, it would be a good idea to carry a small, portable umbrella.

The sky will be somewhat cloudy tomorrow, and light rain is expected to continue in Jeju until early morning.

Tomorrow morning's low in Daegu will be 19°C (66°F), similar to today, and daytime temperatures will rise to around 32°C (90°F) in many areas, leading to muggy conditions.
