Heatwave peaks this weekend _ 080919

날씨: 주말 폭염 절정

The intense heatwave gripping the country has led many to seek protection from the heat while health authorities are urging people to stay hydrated.
But overhydration can lead to dangerously low levels of sodium in your blood.
This can cause severe symptoms, such as brain swelling,... which can cause headaches and vomiting.
2 liters of water per day is the average amount recommended... so
sip on it constantly instead of drinking it all at once.
Hello I'm Michelle Park here with the latest weather update.
Related health and safety ministries are urging the public to take all adequate measures to endure sizzling temperatures as nearly the entire nation is under heatwave warnings.
The current heatwave could come to a sizzling peak coinciding with sporadic showers and thunderstorms in parts of Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do provinces tomorrow.
In the meantime, the rest of the nation will mainly be under mostly sunny skies on Saturday.
The capital and the rest of the nation will have a hotter start of the day with,... Seoul, Daejeon, Busan and Jeju kicking off Saturday morning at 26 degrees Celsius.
Brace yourselves for another scorching afternoon tomorrow,...
especially if you are in the capital as the mercury is expected to soar up to 37 degrees Celsius.
Conversely, the southern regions are looking more bearable with highs in the low thirties.
Meanwhile, typhoon Lekima is heading northwards.
