The rains are projected to reduce daytime temperatures to around 21 degrees Celsius in Seoul and other parts of the country, about ten degrees lower than the previous day.
Heavy rain warnings have been issued for some parts of the nation, including higher elevation areas on Jeju and the southern coastal regions of South Jeolla Province. Up to 200 millimeters of rain is expected in the former, while over 100 millimeters is expected in the latter.
The rain is expected to stop in most parts of the country during the night.
