On Monday, October 3rd, which is National Foundation Day, the entire country will be cloudy with rain mainly in the central regions.

Expected precipitation until the 4th is 50-100mm (with some areas exceeding 120mm) in the Seoul metropolitan area, northern Chungnam, the west coast, and the West Sea 5 Islands; 30-80mm in the southern Chungnam west coast and inland northern Chungcheong; and 10-60mm in southern inland Chungcheong, northern Jeonbuk and Gyeongbuk, as well as Ulleungdo and Dokdo.

In the southern Gyeongbuk and Gyeongnam regions, rain of 5-30mm is expected briefly at dawn.

The morning low temperatures are forecasted to be between 17 and 23 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs between 22 and 28 degrees Celsius.

Fine dust levels will be 'good' nationwide due to smooth atmospheric dispersion and the influence of precipitation.

Strong winds are expected mainly in the mountainous areas of Gangwon and island regions, so caution is advised for facility management and safety accidents.

In the central West Sea offshore area, very strong winds will blow until dawn, causing high waves. From the afternoon, thunderstorms with gusts are expected over the East Sea, so vessels engaged in navigation or fishing should exercise special caution.

Wave heights in the coastal seas will be 0.5-2.0m in the East Sea, 0.5-2.5m in the West Sea, and 0.5-1.5m in the South Sea.

Wave heights in the outer offshore areas (about 200km from the coastline) are predicted to be 0.5-3.0m in the East Sea, 1.0-3.0m in the West Sea, and 0.5-2.0m in the South Sea.
