Ongoing extreme heat across South Korea, driven by a persistent high-pressure ridge and subsidence warming, has pushed recent temperatures well above the early-August climatological average of 29–31 °C at Incheon International Airport. Latest KMA and international model runs project daytime maxima of 35–37 °C on August 7 under mostly clear skies, light easterly winds, and elevated humidity that limits nocturnal cooling. The heatwave’s northward expansion from southeastern record readings (42.5 °C) has elevated trader consensus toward the 34–36 °C bin, with 35 °C holding the highest implied probability. Updated short-range forecasts and any afternoon convective development remain the key variables that could shift outcomes before resolution.
