We couldn't have asked for a better Children's day, that is, in terms of the weather. A beautiful day to play outdoors.
Will the weather stay favorable for us throughout the long weekend? Let's head straight over to our Lee Jee-hyun at the weather center for some answers.
Jeehyun, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the gorgeous weather will continue all throughout. But, today felt like early summer even?
Yes, and probably the summer-like weather can be attributed to the fact that today is also Ipha, a seasonal terms that marks the beginning of summer And the mercury surely reminded us of the day, as Seoul soared to 26.9 degrees Celsius
Beginning of summer already? But rain is on the way for tomorrow?
Yes and some parts of the country are already seeing rainfall as we speak, and the whole nation should wake up to a rainy Friday. Up to 60 millimeters of rain are in store for Jeju Island while most parts of the country will receive between 5 to 10 millimeters. But it should all let up by lunch time.
And the top temperatures will be a lot lower compared to today's,... about 7 degrees lower, while daily lows will be higher, so let's take a closer look...
Seoul, Daegu and Gwangju kick off at 16 degrees Celsius while Busan and Jeju Island will wake up to a low of 14 and 18.
As for the highs,
Seoul gets up to 20 degrees Celsius while Daegu Gwangju and Jeju will rise to 24.
The weather outlook for the rest of the holiday seems to be unstable, with chances of yellow dust sweeping in after tomorrow's showers.
That's all for Korea and here's a look at the weather conditions around the world.
