[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Byung-don] On Monday the 20th, the whole country will be mostly clear, with morning temperatures below freezing in most areas due to cold air flowing in from the northwest.

As of 7 a.m. on that day, temperatures are Seoul -1.0°C, Incheon -0.6°C, Suwon -3.2°C, Chuncheon -6.0°C, Gangneung 1.4°C, Cheongju -1.4°C, Daejeon -1.9°C, Jeonju -3.1°C, Gwangju -0.9°C, Jeju 5.2°C, Daegu 0.3°C, Busan 0.8°C, Ulsan -0.9°C, Changwon -0.1°C, etc.

The daytime high temperatures are forecast to be between 1 and 10°C.

On Ulleungdo and Dokdo, less than 5 mm of rain or 1 to 5 cm of snow is expected to accumulate by the 21st.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'Good' to 'Moderate' across all regions due to smooth atmospheric dispersion.

Sea waves will be 0.5 to 2.5 m in the East Sea coastal waters, 1.0 to 2.5 m in the West Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 2.0 m in the South Sea coastal waters.

Wave heights in the offshore waters (about 200 km from the coastline) of the East Sea, West Sea, and South Sea are forecast to be 1.5 to 4.0 m, so caution is advised due to high waves across all seas.
