This week's heat wave isn't too bad.
As of today (26th), Seoul has been experiencing a heat wave of over 35 degrees Celsius for six days.
The sleepless tropical night will continue for a week.
Why does the rain continue like this?
This is because Korea is currently on the edge of the North Pacific high pressure, and the hot and humid southeast wind continues to blow.
Meanwhile, typhoon 'Nepatak', which is heading for Japan, is expected to have strong rain and wind in Tokyo tomorrow as it makes landfall near Sandai, Japan the day after tomorrow.
Tomorrow will be as hot as today, with the highest daytime temperature in Seoul of 35 degrees Celsius, and there is a possibility of a storm tomorrow morning on the west coast of Jeollanam-do due to the influence of typhoon 'popa' that landed in China.
Heatwaves and tropical nights will continue to dominate this week.
