[Asia Economy Reporter Seongpil Cho] On Sunday the 29th, the whole country will be mostly clear, but many places will experience morning temperatures dropping below freezing, making it cold.


According to the Korea Meteorological Administration on the 28th, light rain under 5mm or snow less than 1cm is expected from dawn to morning in northern Chungnam, southern Chungnam's west coast, and Jeolla's west coast. Light rain or snowflakes will sporadically fall until morning on the southern Gyeonggi west coast, and at night on Jeolla's west coast and Jeju Island. The Jeju mountain area, which has occasionally seen snow since Saturday, is expected to record 1 to 3cm of snowfall by that morning.


The nationwide morning low temperatures will range from -8 to 4 degrees Celsius, and daytime highs will be between 2 and 11 degrees Celsius. Following the morning cold, daytime temperatures will also be chilly nationwide, with central inland areas, eastern Jeonbuk, and inland Gyeongbuk showing around 5 degrees Celsius.


Fine dust levels will be 'Good' to 'Moderate' across all regions due to smooth atmospheric dispersion. In Gangwon Yeongdong, the Gyeongsang coast, and the northeastern mountainous areas of Gyeongbuk, where dry weather warnings are in effect, caution is advised to prevent wildfires and other fire hazards.



Sea waves will be 0.5 to 2 meters in the East Sea nearshore, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the West Sea and South Sea nearshore. Offshore wave heights are expected to be 1 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 2 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 3 meters in the South Sea.
