Recent extreme heat across South Korea, driven by overlapping high-pressure systems and clear skies, has pushed temperatures into the upper 30s°C near Seoul with record readings exceeding 42°C farther south. For August 8 specifically, KMA and ensemble forecasts indicate a modest moderation, favoring daytime maxima around 34–36°C in the Seoul-Incheon region under continued humidity near 70% and light easterly flow. Model spread and timing of any frontal passage create the tight clustering at 35°C and 36°C in market odds, while historical August climatology shows typical peaks near 30–32°C. Updated short-range guidance expected within 48 hours could shift probabilities ahead of resolution.
