Daejeon's Climate
Daejeon lies in central South Korea, set in an inland valley far from the coast, which gives it a humid continental climate with four sharply defined seasons. Summers (June–August) are hot, humid and sticky, coinciding with the jangma rainy season and frequent thunderstorms, with temperatures often reaching 28–33°C, while winters (December–February) are cold and dry as Siberian monsoon winds push readings below freezing and bring snowfall. Spring (March–May) warms gradually amid blossoms, and autumn (September–November) is cool, dry and clear, widely regarded as the finest time of year.
