[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Tuesday the 23rd will have a large temperature difference between day and night and strong winds.

On the 22nd, the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) stated, "The weather on this day will be influenced by a high-pressure system moving eastward near Shanghai, China."

According to the KMA, from early morning strong winds will blow at speeds of 35 to 65 km/h with gusts exceeding 90 km/h in the mountainous areas of Gangwon and northeastern Gyeongbuk, and winds of 30 to 50 km/h with gusts over 70 km/h along the central and northern East Coast of Gangwon.

From the morning, strong winds of 20 to 45 km/h with gusts over 55 km/h will also blow along the southern East Coast of Gangwon and the East Coast of Gyeongbuk.

The morning temperature will be chilly as on the previous day, but daytime temperatures will rise to around 15 degrees Celsius in most regions nationwide, and around 20 degrees Celsius in the Gyeongsang area and the East Coast of Gangwon, making it mild.

The morning low temperatures by region are forecasted as follows: △Seoul 3°C △Chuncheon -1°C △Gangneung 5°C △Daejeon 3°C △Cheongju 3°C △Daegu 1°C △Gwangju 2°C △Jeonju 2°C △Busan 4°C △Jeju 9°C △Ulleungdo and Dokdo 6°C.

The KMA urged, "Please inspect and prepare facilities such as screening clinics, vinyl greenhouses, and traffic lights, as well as potential hazards in advance to prevent damage caused by strong winds. Since strong winds can cause small sparks to turn into large fires, please be cautious of wildfires and other types of fire."
