[Tomorrow's Weather] Warm Gyeongchip... Fine Dust 'Bad'

On the 6th, known as 'Gyeongchip,' when frogs wake up from hibernation, the weather will be mild with continued fine dust.

The morning low temperatures are expected to range from -4 to 9 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs from 12 to 20 degrees Celsius. These temperatures are about 4 to 8 degrees higher than the average (morning lows -4 to 4 degrees, daytime highs 8 to 12 degrees).

Dense fine dust will persist. Fine dust concentrations will be 'bad' in the Seoul metropolitan area, Gangwon Yeongseo, Sejong, Chungbuk, Daegu, and Gyeongbuk, while other regions will experience 'moderate' levels. However, Daejeon, Chungnam, Honam region, Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam are expected to have 'bad' levels in the morning.

The Korea Meteorological Administration urged special caution to prevent wildfires and other fires, as the air is very dry in most parts of the country, making small sparks likely to spread into large fires.

Sea waves will be 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the East Sea and South Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the West Sea coastal waters. In the offshore waters (about 200 km from the coastline), wave heights are predicted to be 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea.
