South Korea's meteorological agency reported extraordinary rainfall totals across southern provinces Sunday evening. Muan County recorded 142.1 millimeters within a single hour, approaching the national record of 145 millimeters set during July 1998. The deluge represented approximately eleven percent of the region's typical annual precipitation. Weather officials measured 30 to 80 millimeters per hour across southern and western provinces by 9 p.m. Forecasters predict continued precipitation through Tuesday morning.

Government agencies activated emergency protocols as rainfall totals may reach 100 to 200 millimeters. Gwangju and South Jeolla Province could receive up to 250 millimeters during the weather event. Interior Minister Yun Ho-jung emphasized prevention measures near waterways and evacuation preparedness. Multiple provinces elevated their emergency response systems to Level 1 status. Agricultural authorities established round-the-clock monitoring through Tuesday morning.

Officials warned residents against unnecessary travel and urged the avoidance of riverside paths, slopes, and flood-prone roadways. Previous July storms claimed 23 lives and left five people missing nationwide.
