[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] Tomorrow, Monday the 20th, the entire country is expected to be cloudy with heavy rain, which will cease from the afternoon.


The Korea Meteorological Administration announced on the 19th that this weather pattern is due to a low-pressure system developing along a stationary front across the country.


Expected precipitation by the 20th is 50-100mm (over 150mm in some areas) in Seoul, Gyeonggi, Yeongseo region of Gangwon, the five western islands, and Chungnam; around 10-50mm in Yeongdong region of Gangwon, Chungbuk, southern regions (southern coast until the 21st), and Jeju (until the 21st).


The morning low temperatures will range from 22 to 26 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs will be between 25 and 31 degrees Celsius. Due to the rain and cloudy weather, temperatures will be lower than usual.


Morning low temperatures by region are ▲Seoul 24°C ▲Incheon 22°C ▲Chuncheon 24°C ▲Gangneung 26°C ▲Daejeon 25°C ▲Daegu 25°C ▲Busan 24°C ▲Jeonju 25°C ▲Gwangju 24°C ▲Jeju 27°C.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'Good' across all regions. Due to smooth atmospheric dispersion and the effect of precipitation, air quality is also expected to be clean.



Sea waves will be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the western sea nearshore, 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the southern sea nearshore, 1.0 to 2.0 meters in the eastern sea nearshore, and up to 4 meters in the offshore areas of the western, eastern, and southern seas.
