[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] On Saturday the 17th, the weather will be influenced by the edge of a high-pressure system located over the northern East Sea. The western regions will be affected by a trough, resulting in cloudy skies nationwide with occasional increased cloudiness during the day. Rain is expected until the morning in the Seoul metropolitan area, Gangwon Yeongseo, and northern Chungnam. Due to the influence of Typhoon Nanmadol No. 14, rain will begin in Jeju from the afternoon and in the southern coast late in the afternoon. Daytime temperatures will rise up to a high of 32 degrees Celsius, making it temporarily hot.


According to the Korea Meteorological Administration on the 16th, the expected accumulated rainfall until the morning of the 17th is 5 to 40 mm in the Seoul metropolitan area and central to northern Gangwon Yeongseo, with some areas in Incheon, the western coast of Gyeonggi, and northern Gyeonggi receiving over 60 mm. Around 5 mm of rain is forecast for southern Gangwon Yeongseo, Chungnam, Chungbuk, the western coast of Jeolla, Jeju, and the southern coast.


Strong winds are expected over the seas near Jeju and the southern sea. Winds will blow at speeds of 10 to 16 meters per second (35 to 60 km/h), and waves will rise to heights of 2.0 to 5.0 meters. Due to this, there may be delays or cancellations in flights and ferry operations, causing disruptions.


The morning low temperatures are forecast to be between 19 and 23 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs between 27 and 32 degrees Celsius. The expected minimum temperatures in major cities are: ▲Seoul 23°C ▲Incheon 22°C ▲Chuncheon 23°C ▲Gangneung 23°C ▲Daejeon 23°C ▲Daegu 22°C ▲Jeonju 23°C ▲Gwangju 23°C ▲Busan 23°C ▲Jeju 24°C.


The expected maximum temperatures are: ▲Seoul 29°C ▲Incheon 28°C ▲Chuncheon 30°C ▲Gangneung 31°C ▲Daejeon 31°C ▲Daegu 31°C ▲Jeonju 32°C ▲Gwangju 32°C ▲Busan 28°C ▲Jeju 28°C.


The Korea Meteorological Administration advised, "For the time being, high waves caused by swell will strongly hit the beaches and may overflow rocks or breakwaters along the Jeju coast and the East Sea coast. Please be especially cautious of safety accidents along the coast."


Fine dust levels are expected to be 'good' to 'moderate' nationwide due to smooth atmospheric dispersion.
