On Friday, the 29th, hot weather will continue, with daytime highs reaching up to 35°C in Daegu and Gangneung.

Morning lows are forecast to be between 22°C and 27°C, and daytime highs between 30°C and 35°C.

With heatwave advisories issued for most areas nationwide, the highest perceived temperature will reach around 33°C (around 35°C in Jeollanam-do Province and Gyeongsangnam-do Province), making it very muggy.

Tropical nights may occur in urban areas and along the coast, so it is important to take care of your health.

The central region will be mostly cloudy, while the southern region and Jeju Island will have occasional cloudy skies.

Showers are expected in the central region, including the Seoul metropolitan area, and on Jeju Island.

The estimated rainfall from showers is 5-60 mm for Incheon, northern Gyeonggi Province, and the West Sea Islands; 5-40 mm for Seoul, southern Gyeonggi Province, and inland and mountainous areas of central and southern Gangwon Province; 5-30 mm for the Chungcheong region (excluding southern Chungbuk Province); and 5-20 mm for Jeju Island.

Fine dust concentrations are expected to be at a 'good' level nationwide due to smooth atmospheric diffusion and the influence of precipitation.

Wave heights in the East Sea and West Sea inshore will be between 0.5-1.5 meters, and in the South Sea inshore, 0.5 meters.

Wave heights in the offshore waters (within approximately 200 km of the coastline) are expected to be 0.5-2.0 meters in the East Sea and West Sea, and 0.5-1.0 meter in the South Sea.
