[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On Sunday the 20th, the whole country will be mostly clear, but the Chungnam region, Jeolla region, and Jeju Island will be mostly cloudy with snow.

The morning low temperature is forecast to be between -13 and -2 degrees Celsius, and the daytime high temperature between -2 and 5 degrees Celsius. In the northern and eastern parts of Gyeonggi Province, the inland mountainous areas of Gangwon Province, Chungbuk, and northern inland Gyeongbuk, where cold wave warnings have been issued, morning temperatures will drop below -10 degrees Celsius, making it very cold. Fine dust levels are expected to be 'Good' across all regions due to smooth atmospheric dispersion.

Snowfall of 5 to 20 cm or rain of about 5 to 20 mm is expected in the mountainous areas of Jeju Island; 2 to 7 cm of snow or about 5 mm of rain in the southern part of Jeonbuk and the western Jeonnam region; and 1 to 5 cm of snow or less than 5 mm of rain along the west coast of Chungnam, northern Chungnam region, central and southern Chungbuk, northern Jeonbuk, eastern Jeonnam, and Jeju Island (excluding mountainous areas).

On the east coast, high waves caused by swells may overflow rocky shores or breakwaters, so caution is advised to prevent accidents. Sea waves are expected to be 1.0 to 3.5 meters in the East Sea coastal waters, 1.0 to 3.0 meters in the West Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the South Sea coastal waters. Offshore waves (about 200 km from the coastline) are predicted to be 1.5 to 4.0 meters in the East and West Seas, and 1.0 to 4.0 meters in the South Sea.
