8 Official Information Sources to Check During Heavy Rain, Typhoons, and Heatwaves
A public information checklist organized by the type of extreme weather to determine what to check first and how to respond.
When heavy rain, typhoons, or heatwaves are expected, quickly finding official information tailored to the situation is more important than skimming through various search results. For heavy rain, you need to consider weather alerts and radar cumulative precipitation; for typhoons, not only the path but also the radius of strong winds and region-specific risk timings; and for heatwaves, you should check temperature figures along with the level of impact in health and industry sectors to determine when to take action.
This list connects the Korea Meteorological Administration's heavy rain alerts, radar, current typhoon information, risk timings, and heatwave impact forecasts along with the National Disaster Safety Portal and safety maps. It’s organized to help you check 'Where is dangerous right now?', 'When should preparations be completed?', and 'How should you act?' If your family members have different routes, check each area separately.

Alerts serve as official signals to indicate potential dangers; however, the actual evacuation and cessation of movement will vary depending on the terrain and on-site conditions of your residence, workplace, and school route. During heavy rain, avoid underground passages and river access, and before a typhoon, make sure to tidy up outdoor items before strong winds begin. For heatwaves, adjust outdoor work hours and check on vulnerable family members based on the perceived temperature and impact forecasts.
Don't determine safety by just checking the map colors or one cyclone center line; you should read the announcement timing and forecast range together. If flooding or strong winds have already started, do not go outside to check conditions. When there are differences among the latest announcements from the meteorological administration, local disaster texts, police, fire department, and facility managers, prioritize the most specific and immediately applicable on-site guidance based on your location.
