First, let’s connect with a reporter who is out in Oido, Gyeonggi-do, on the west coast.

Reporter Kim Hyun-ji: How is the situation now?

◀ Reporter ▶

Yes, I currently live in Oido, Siheung-si, Gyeonggi-do.

As you can see, thunderstorms are accompanied by strong rain and winds.

Typhoon Jongdari weakened No. 9 to a tropical depression at 9pm last night.

As you can see, the rain, which had subsided a little in the early hours of the morning, became heavier about two hours ago.

Showers are falling heavily.

Typhoon Jongdari, which was moving north along the west coast, passed the sea near Heuksan Island and its maximum wind speed fell below typhoon level.

Although the scale is small, the sea level in Incheon is expected to rise up to 9 meters during the ‘Baekjungsari’ period, when the sea level is at its highest point of the year.

Nearby residents should be careful.

Currently, there is heavy rain and strong winds to the east of the tropical cyclone.

Please use caution as heavy rain warnings are issued in parts of South Gyeonggi and South Chungcheong regions and heavy rain advisories are issued in Seoul, South Gyeonggi Province, and Chungcheong regions South.

Until now, we have delivered it to you from Oido.
