[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Seon-ae] On the 18th, the entire country is expected to be affected by yellow dust and fine dust, with clouds gradually increasing from night, mainly in the Jeonnam region. On the east coast, raindrops are expected to fall from night.


The morning low temperature is forecasted to be between -1 and 9 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature between 11 and 20 degrees Celsius. There will be a temperature difference of more than 10 degrees between day and night, especially in the central region, so health care should be taken.


Due to the influence of yellow dust and stagnant air, fine dust concentration levels will be 'bad' in Seoul, southern Gyeonggi, Gangwon Yeongdong, Chungnam, Daegu, and Gyeongbuk, while other regions will show 'normal' levels. Incheon, Gangwon Yeongseo, Busan, Ulsan, and Jeju Island are expected to have temporarily 'bad' levels in the morning.


Dense fog is expected in inland areas from dawn to morning, so caution is advised for traffic safety.



Sea waves will be 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the East Sea nearshore, 0.5 meters in the West Sea nearshore, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the South Sea nearshore. Wave heights in the open sea are expected to be 1 to 2 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the West Sea, and 1 to 2 meters in the South Sea.
