Citizens listen to actor Lee Bum-soo who lectures on "Showing tenacity of a giant to Youth" at the 2011 S20 Youth Festival held at the Hangang Park in Yeouido, Seoul, Saturday afternoon. It was 25.9 degrees Celsius in Seoul, the record highest for November since weather was forecast in 1907 for the first time. (Yonhap)

Korea had an unseasonably warm day on Saturday, with temperatures in Seoul rising to a record high for November, the state weather agency said.

A warm and humid atmospheric current moving from the southwest pushed up temperatures in most of the Korean peninsula to over 20 degrees Celsius, the Korea Meteorological Administration said.

Daytime high was 25.9 degrees Celsius in Seoul, the highest for November since the weather was forecast in 1907 for the first time.

The other regional daytime high was 24.7 degrees in Chuncheon, 25.8 degrees in Suwon, 25.6 degrees in Hongcheon, 26.4 degrees inGwangyang and 25.8 degrees in Geoje of South Gyeongsang Province.

Given the daytime high in early November averaged 15-19 degrees, it is more than 10 degrees higher than the average.

The early summer temperature, which has continued since last Thursday, has been forecast to return to normal Sunday.



서울 25.9도…역대 11월 기온중 최고
서울 25.9도…역대 11월 기온중 최고 6일부터 평년 기온으로 내려갈 듯 5일 서울의 낮 최고기온이 역대 11월 기온 중 최고치인 25.9도까지 올라가는 등 전국이 초여름 날씨를 보였다. 5일 기상청에 따르면 북태평양 고기압의 가장자리를 따라 남서쪽의 따뜻하고 습한 기류가 한반도로 유입되면서 이날 전국 대부분 지역의 기온이 20도 이상을 기록했다. 서울은 낮 최고기온이 25.9도로, 1907년 관측을 시작한 이래 11월 기온으로는 최고를 기록했다. 춘천(24.7도)과 수원(25.8도), 창원(24.8도), 홍천(25.6도), 광양(26.4도), 거제(25.8도) 등에서도 최고기온을 보였다. 11월 초순의 평년 낮 최고기온이 15∼19도 정도인 점을 감안하면 최대 10도 이상 기온이 올라간 셈이다. 기상청 관계자는 "당초 한반도에 영향을 줄 것으로 보였던 기압골이 북상하지 못하고 동쪽으로 빨리 이동한데다 후면에서 따뜻하고 습한 공기가 유입됐다"면서 "맑은 날씨에 따른 일사까지 더해지면서 고온 현상이 지속되고 있다"고 설명했다. 지난 3일부터 계속된 초여름 날씨는 일요일인 6일을 기점으로 평년 수준으로 돌아갈 것으로 전망됐다.
