AccuWeather.com - Weather News | Tropical Storm Meari Pounds Korea


Jeju Island bore the brunt of the Meari's damaging winds, accompanied by torrential rains. But wide areas of southern and western Korea suffered flooding rain and high winds.

Electrical pylons were toppled on Jeju and the southern mainland, according to the Times. A bridge on the Nakdong River of southeastern South Korea was collapsed by floodwaters. Highland areas were hit by landslides.

Tropical storm rainfall was 6 to 12 inches over much of the peninsula. Taejon, South Korea, was it with nearly 13 inches of rain within 48 hours.

Soaking rainfall unrelated to Meari preceded that of the tropical storm, so Meari's flood impact was magnified.

Meari's life cycle began over tropical seas east of the Philippines, and it was named by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) on June 22.

Landfall was on the coast of western North Korea Sunday night, local time, followed by much improved weather on Monday.
