[Asia Economy Reporter Minji Lee] On the 5th, the day after the holiday, rain is expected mainly in the central region.


The rain, which started in the northern metropolitan area and northern Gangwon, is expected to expand to the southern Gyeonggi and southern Gangwon areas in the morning, and the metropolitan area will enter a lull in some places from late afternoon. During the day, raindrops will fall in Jeju Island and northern Chungnam.


In northern Gyeonggi, very heavy rain of 20 to 40 mm per hour accompanied by thunder and lightning is expected from the previous night to dawn, and in central and northern Yeongseo, Gangwon, until daytime.


The expected precipitation until the next day, the 6th, is 30 to 80 mm in northern Gyeonggi and central and northern Gangwon (up to 100 mm in northern Gyeonggi, over 150 mm in northern Gangwon), 10 to 40 mm in Seoul, Incheon, the five western islands, and southern Gangwon, and 5 to 10 mm in southern Gyeonggi, Ulleungdo, and Dokdo.


The morning low temperature will range from 15 to 22 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature will range from 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. Looking at the highest temperatures by region, Seoul is expected to rise to 25 degrees. Following are △ Incheon (25 degrees) △ Suwon (26 degrees) △ Chuncheon (24 degrees) △ Gangneung (23 degrees) △ Daejeon (28 degrees) △ Sejong (27 degrees) △ Jeonju (29 degrees) △ Daegu (30 degrees) △ Busan (28 degrees) △ Ulsan (29 degrees) △ Jeju (29 degrees).


From dawn to morning, fog with visibility below 200 meters is expected mainly in the southern inland areas. In the Gangwon mountain area, low clouds will flow in until the 6th, causing dense fog.


The sea waves will be 0.5 to 3.5 meters in the East Sea coastal waters, 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the West Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea coastal waters. The wave height in the inner offshore waters (offshore waters about 200 km from the coastline) is expected to be 0.5 to 3.5 meters in the East Sea and 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the West and South Seas. Until the morning, strong winds of 8 to 13 m/s with gusts exceeding 15 m/s (over 20 m/s in mountainous areas) are expected along the West Coast and Gangwon Yeongdong, and strong winds around 15 m/s are expected in some parts of the central region.



In the central West Sea and central East Sea, there may be thunder and lightning accompanied by gusts, and a high wave warning may be issued for the central East Sea. Swells will flow into the East Coast, causing high waves to wash onto sandy beaches or over rocks and breakwaters, so caution is needed to prevent safety accidents.
