[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] On the 9th, the day of the 20th presidential election, the whole country is expected to be clear and warm.

With dry air and slightly strong winds expected, special caution is needed to prevent fires.

The morning low temperature on the 9th is expected to be around 0 degrees Celsius, ranging from -4 to 6 degrees Celsius, similar to the average (-4 to 4 degrees Celsius). The daytime high temperature will reach around 15 degrees Celsius, ranging from 10 to 19 degrees Celsius, higher than the average (8 to 12 degrees Celsius).

In Seoul, the morning low and daytime high temperatures will be 2 degrees and 15 degrees Celsius, respectively.

The low and high temperatures in major cities are: Incheon 3 and 11 degrees, Daejeon 0 and 17 degrees, Gwangju 3 and 19 degrees, Daegu 2 and 18 degrees, Ulsan 2 and 15 degrees, and Busan 6 and 16 degrees Celsius.

With clear skies and no clouds, radiative cooling will occur overnight, causing temperatures to drop sharply. From the night of the 8th to the morning of the 9th, dense fog will form in the Seoul metropolitan area, northern Chungnam, and the western coast of Jeonnam.

Fog is also expected in the inland areas of Gangwon, southern Chungnam, Chungbuk, and Honam excluding the western coast, reducing visibility to less than 1 km.

In the central region where dry weather warnings have been issued, as well as in eastern Jeolla and Yeongnam, the air will be very dry. Even in areas without warnings, the air is expected to be dry. Winds will blow somewhat strongly, making it easy for small sparks to develop into large fires.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'bad' in the Seoul metropolitan area, Gangwon Yeongseo, Chungcheong, Gwangju, Jeonbuk, Daegu, Ulsan, and Gyeongbuk, while other regions will have 'normal' levels.
