Recent KMA forecasts and live observations position Busan’s August 17 maximum near 26°C, driven by persistent cloud cover, scattered showers, and sea breezes that enhance mixing and limit daytime heating along the coast. Ensemble model runs and current surface readings near 24–26°C align with this range, well below the month’s typical 29–31°C climatological peak. Marine moderation and reduced insolation create the dominant market consensus at 26°C. A rapid clearing of skies or stronger onshore flow could push readings to 27°C or higher, while heavier rainfall or stronger winds would reinforce the lower outcome.
