[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] On the 26th, daytime temperatures across most regions nationwide are expected to rise to around 20 degrees Celsius, making it mild.

On the 25th, the Korea Meteorological Administration forecasted that under the influence of a high-pressure system moving eastward over the West Sea, the country will be mostly clear, with increased clouds in the central regions in the afternoon.

The morning low temperatures are predicted to range from 1 to 10 degrees Celsius, but in Yeongseo, Gangwon Province, and northern Gyeongbuk, temperatures may drop below 0 degrees (-3 to 0 degrees). Daytime highs are expected to rise by 1 to 3 degrees compared to the previous day, reaching 16 to 25 degrees Celsius. Especially in the southern inland areas, temperatures may approach 25 degrees.

Fine dust concentrations are expected to be high in the central-western and some Yeongnam areas due to stagnant air causing accumulation of domestically generated fine dust. The Seoul metropolitan area and Daegu are forecasted to have 'bad' air quality, while other regions are expected to be 'moderate.'

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

A Korea Meteorological Administration official stated, "In the mountainous areas of Gangwon and the East Coast of Gangwon, the air is dry and winds are strong, so caution is needed to prevent various fires, including wildfires."
