In the next 24-48 hours, the low pressure trough will be compressed southward and gradually fill, forming a tropical convergence zone passing through the central area of the East Sea with increasing intensity. The Southwest monsoon is operating at an average level but will strengthen in the coming days.
Above, the southern branch of the subtropical high pressure weakens, while the northern branch encroaches westward with its axis passing through the North, creating favorable conditions for increased rain in the South.
In the next 3-10 days, the intertropical convergence zone tends to gradually move northward. A tropical depression is likely to form on this convergence zone. The Southwest monsoon continues to strengthen, while the upper subtropical high pressure maintains stable activity before tending to retreat to the East from around July 4.
Due to the impact of the above weather patterns, in the next 24 hours, the South will have rain in many places, locally moderate to heavy rain. From the next 24-48 hours, rain will continue to increase with moderate to heavy rain with thunderstorms. Total rainfall is commonly from 50-100 mm, in some places over 100 mm.
Notably, from 7 pm on July 2nd to 7 pm on July 3rd, the South still maintained a period of heavy rain with common rainfall of 40-80 mm, with some places exceeding 100 mm.
The meteorological agency warns that prolonged heavy rain may cause flooding in low-lying areas, urban areas, industrial parks, riverside areas and canals. During thunderstorms, people need to be wary of dangerous weather phenomena such as tornadoes, lightning, hail and strong gusts of wind.
