My friend told me there are heat wave warnings in Korea. (I'm in Canada out in the Maritimes for a month or so.) Is it true? They usually always carry on like normal whenever I've been there in summer.

According to this, it will feel like 47 degrees with the humidity. Are they actually using air con over there or either not turning it on or only turning it on minimally using that new stupid 26 degree rule? I'm hoping when I get back to the ROK that the air con will be on for real. (It sure will be in my home.)

Just wanted to let you blokes know, it's 25 degrees here, dry with little humidity, and there are blue skies where I am now. Ha ha.....

Fattwah for thine hubris: may a sinkhole size of New Orleans SuperDome be forming under thee. Laughing

"All factories, public institutions, households and shops must refrain from using electricity between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. for three days starting Monday," Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Yoon Sang-jik said in a statement."
