[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] On Friday the 19th, there will be occasional clouds nationwide, becoming gradually overcast from Jeonnam at night. Jeju Island will be mostly cloudy with rain of 20 to 60 mm starting at night.

The morning low temperature is forecasted to be between 4 and 10 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature between 11 and 20 degrees Celsius. The temperature difference between day and night is expected to be around 15 degrees, especially in inland areas, so caution is advised for health management.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'moderate' across all regions. However, in the Seoul metropolitan area, Chungcheong, and other central-western regions, yellow dust and domestically generated fine dust will remain in the atmosphere, causing concentrations to rise to 'bad' levels in the morning.

From the afternoon of this day until the 20th, very strong winds and high waves are expected in the southern East Sea, eastern South Sea, and waters around Jeju. Ships engaged in navigation or fishing should exercise caution.

On the eastern coast of Gyeongsang, high waves caused by swell may overflow rocky shores. Sea waves will range from 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea coastal waters, 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the West Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the South Sea coastal waters.
