[Asia Economy Reporter Jang Sehee] On the 14th, the severe cold will continue until the morning. The whole country will be mostly clear, but clouds will gradually increase from night.

The morning low temperature is forecasted to be between -18 and -2 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature between -1 and 7 degrees Celsius.

The morning temperature in northern Gyeonggi and inland mountainous areas of Gangwon will drop below -15 degrees Celsius, while other central regions, northeastern Jeonbuk, and inland Gyeongbuk will experience temperatures below -10 degrees Celsius.

The cold will ease from the afternoon as temperatures rise to average levels. Fine dust concentration is expected to be 'Good' to 'Moderate' across all regions due to smooth atmospheric dispersion.

Snowfall of 3 to 8 cm is forecasted in the mountainous areas of Jeju Island until dawn. Western Jeolla region, Jeju excluding mountainous areas, will receive 1 to 5 cm of snow, and eastern Jeonnam will see less than 1 cm of snow. Some places in Chungcheong and eastern Jeonbuk may experience flurries.

Strong wind warnings have been issued for coastal areas nationwide, Jeju Island, and mountainous areas of Gangwon. Winds will be very strong until morning, so special caution is required to prevent damage to facilities and ensure safety.

Meanwhile, wave heights in the seas are expected to be 1.0 to 3.5 meters in the East Sea nearshore, 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the West Sea nearshore, and 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the South Sea nearshore. In the offshore seas (about 200 km from the coastline), wave heights are expected to be 1.0 to 5.0 meters in the East Sea, and 0.5 to 3.0 meters in the West and South Seas.
