How was Seoul yesterday?
Crowd peaks were moderate across most areas: Hongdae, Myeongdong, Seongsu, and Itaewon all hit level 2 (moderate) at 7pm, while Jamsil reached level 3 (heavy) at the same hour — typical for a summer Friday near major shopping and entertainment hubs. The PM2.5 average of 14.8 µg/m³ was well below the Korean daily standard of 35 µg/m³; air quality was excellent for outdoor plans. Temperatures ranged from a low of 25°C to a high of 28.4°C — about 1–2°C cooler than the seasonal average, likely due to afternoon clouds.
What to expect today
As of 07:00, the city is 25.2°C (feels like 30.8°C) with an 81% chance of rain and PM2.5 at 12.7 — still good air. Tomorrow brings similar conditions: a 95% rain probability, temperatures between 25°C and 28.7°C, and light drizzle. If the rain holds off, skies should clear a few hours before sunset at 19:47 — consider a palace stroll or Han River walk this evening, but carry a light jacket.
