[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] On Friday the 13th, the whole country will be mostly clear, but the air will be hazy and there will be a large temperature difference between day and night.

Today, the air will be very dry nationwide, including Gangwon Yeongdong and Gyeongbuk where dry weather warnings have been issued, so special caution is needed to prevent wildfires and other fire hazards.

Also, sporadic raindrops will fall in the northern parts of Gyeonggi and Gangwon Yeongseo in the morning.

The morning low temperatures by region are forecasted as △Seoul 8°C △Chuncheon 3°C △Gangneung 11°C △Daejeon 4°C △Cheongju 5°C △Daegu 5°C △Busan 10°C △Jeonju 5°C △Gwangju 6°C △Jeju 12°C △Ulleungdo·Dokdo 13°C.

Fine dust concentration will remain at a 'bad' level throughout the day due to domestic residual fine dust and external inflow.
