[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Eun-young] On Saturday the 26th, warm southwesterly winds will flow in from the west, bringing mild weather.

The Korea Meteorological Administration stated, "The southern regions will be influenced by a high-pressure system moving eastward over the West Sea, and the central regions will be on its edge."

However, in Yeongseo, Gangwon Province, and some mountainous areas, sporadic snow will fall from dawn to morning, and temperatures may drop in some places.

The morning low temperatures are forecast as follows: △Seoul -1°C △Chuncheon -8°C △Gangneung 0°C △Daejeon -2°C △Cheongju -2°C △Daegu -3°C △Gwangju -1°C △Jeonju -1°C △Busan 1°C △Jeju 5°C △Ulleungdo·Dokdo 2°C.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'moderate' across all regions, but the Seoul metropolitan area and Gangwon Province may experience 'bad' levels temporarily in the afternoon.

The Korea Meteorological Administration forecasted, "The East Coast, where a dry weather warning is in effect, will have very dry air, and other parts of Gyeongsang Province will also be dry," urging caution to prevent various fires such as wildfires.
