It's been raining all day in Seoul, which has cooled things off considerably.<br />Meanwhile, there's a typhoon out in the Pacific that could head this way.<br />Right now it doesn't seem likely, but if it does it could still be extremely powerful when it gets here.<br />Our Choi Jeong-yoon tells us more.<br />Autumn is here, with a steady stream of rain drenching South Korea throughout the day.<br />The Korean Meteorological Administration said that the capital region can expect up to 40 millimeters of rain... while Gangwon-do Province will see just 5 to 20 millimeters. There's also a high possibility of frost on Wednesday as temperatures fall as low as five degrees Celsius.<br />Meanwhile, a tropical storm has formed off the east coast of Guam.<br />That's Typhoon Hagibis, and as of 10 a.m. Monday it was 550 kilometers east-northeast of Guam and will travel northwest towards waters southeast of Okinawa, Japan by the end of the week.<br />The typhoon is forecast to intensify in the Western Pacific Ocean with a huge amount of vapor provided from the warm ocean water.<br />Then it might grow into a super typhoon later in the week, which experts forecast could be the biggest and the strongest of the year so far.<br />A super typhoon has winds of at least 234 kilometers per hour, which is powerful enough to bend a steel tower.<br />If it stays on its projected path, the typhoon will travel towards Japan's Kyushu Island, but there is a low possibility of it impacting Korea.<br />The government is keeping an eye on the storm as it gains strength and could shift course due to differences in surrounding atmospheric pressure.<br />By the middle of the week, it should be clearer whether the typhoon will have an impact on the Korean Peninsula.<br />If Hagibis does have an impact on Korea, it'll be the 8th typhoon this year to do so. That’s a record number of typhoons to affect Korea.<br />The name ‘Hagibis’ comes from the Philippines and means 'fast' or 'swift'.<br />Choi Jeong-yoon, Arirang News.<br />
