[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] On Sunday the 12th, there will be occasional clouds nationwide, with large temperature differences mainly in inland areas.


According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, the morning low temperature is expected to be between -7 and 2 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature between 2 and 9 degrees Celsius.


Jeju Island will experience rain in the morning followed by cloudy weather, and the northeastern part of Gangwon Yeongdong will gradually become cloudy due to easterly winds, with snow or rain expected from noon to evening before clearing up. Expected precipitation amounts are around 5mm for Jeju Island and 5 to 10mm for northeastern Gangwon Yeongdong.


Fine dust levels are expected to be 'normal' across all regions. However, Seoul, Gyeonggi, Gangwon Yeongseo, Chungbuk, and Daegu are expected to have 'bad' levels in the morning.


The National Institute of Environmental Research's Air Quality Integrated Forecast Center explained that the concentration will be high in the morning due to domestic fine dust added to the foreign fine dust that flowed in the previous day and stagnant air.


The western coast of Jeolla Province and Jeju Island are expected to receive around 5mm of rain from Saturday night to Sunday morning. The northern east coast of Gangwon will see raindrops or snowflakes from Sunday afternoon.


In inland areas on Sunday, fog is expected in some places from dawn to morning.



Sea waves will be 0.5 to 2.0 meters high in the front seas of the West Sea and South Sea, and 0.5 to 2.5 meters high in the front sea of the East Sea. Offshore wave heights are forecasted to be 1.0 to 2.5 meters in the West Sea and South Sea, and 1.0 to 4.0 meters in the East Sea.
