[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bo-kyung] On Thursday, the 2nd, the whole country will be mostly clear with continued heat and large temperature differences between day and night.

According to the Korea Meteorological Administration on the 1st, the minimum temperature in the morning of the 2nd is forecast to be 11 to 20℃, and the maximum temperature during the day is expected to be 22 to 33℃.

The KMA stated, "The air will be very dry mainly in the Gyeongsang region, central East Coast of Gangwon, southern Gangwon, and central and southern Chungbuk where dry weather warnings are in effect, so special caution is required to prevent wildfires and other fire hazards."

Also, from dawn to morning on the 2nd, fog with visibility less than 1 km is expected mainly along the West Coast and southern coast of Jeonnam, so caution is advised for traffic safety.

Dense fog is expected mainly over the West Sea, western South Sea, and northern sea areas of Jeju Island, so attention to maritime safety accidents is necessary.

Until the day after tomorrow (the 3rd), mostly clear weather will continue under the influence of high pressure, and temperatures are expected to rise further due to sunlight.

Temperatures until the 3rd will be similar to or slightly higher than the average (minimum temperature 12~17℃, maximum temperature 23~28℃). In particular, many inland areas will see daytime temperatures around 30℃, and the temperature difference between day and night will be very large at 15~20℃.
