According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, Gangwon Yeongdong will see rain starting from dawn, the Gyeongsang East Coast from midday, and Jeju Island from night.

The KMA predicted, "In southern Gyeonggi, Chungcheong, Jeolla, and inland Gyeongsang regions, there will be thunder and lightning with showers from afternoon to night." They added, "In the Gangwon mountain areas, instead of rain, 5 to 20 cm of snow may accumulate."

Additionally, the central region will gradually clear up from the afternoon, but the southern region is expected to remain cloudy with rain throughout the day.

Daytime temperatures will be mild in the central region, such as 15°C in Seoul, but temperatures in the southern region will drop significantly compared to yesterday, making it chilly.

Fine dust levels will range from 'moderate' to 'good' across all areas. However, in the mid-western and southern regions, fine dust concentrations will be somewhat high in the morning but are expected to improve in the afternoon.

Sea waves will be 0.5 to 1.0 m in the West Sea nearshore, 0.5 to 3.0 m in the South Sea nearshore, 0.5 to 5.0 m in the East Sea nearshore, and wave heights in the open sea will range from 0.5 to 6.0 m.
