According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, rain or snow is falling from the early morning in the central region, Jeolla area, inland Gyeongbuk, and western inland Gyeongnam. Most precipitation in Seoul, Incheon, and northern Gyeonggi is expected to stop by night, with some areas showing signs of easing from the afternoon.


The expected precipitation amounts for the day are 5-20 mm for the West Sea 5 Islands, 5-10 mm for northern Gyeonggi, around 5 mm for Seoul, Incheon, southern Gyeonggi, inland and mountainous Gangwon, Daejeon, Sejong, Chungnam, and Chungbuk, and less than 5 mm for the eastern coast of Gangwon, Gwangju, Jeonnam, Jeonbuk, inland Gyeongbuk, western inland Gyeongnam, Ulleungdo and Dokdo, and Jeju Island.


On this day, temperatures are forecast to be around the average level due to sublimation caused by the snowfall. The highest daytime temperatures are expected to be 10°C in Seoul, 10°C in Incheon, 8°C in Chuncheon, 13°C in Gangneung, 12°C in Daejeon, 14°C in Daegu, 12°C in Jeonju, 12°C in Gwangju, 17°C in Busan, and 17°C in Jeju.


However, from the 28th, under the influence of a cold continental high-pressure system moving southeastward from northern China, temperatures are expected to drop sharply back into the subzero range. Morning and daytime temperatures will be 3 to 8 degrees lower than the previous day. Morning temperatures will range from -7°C to 7°C, and the highest daytime temperatures will be between 1°C and 11°C, slightly lower than the average (lowest temperatures -5°C to 6°C, highest temperatures 5°C to 14°C).



On the 28th as well, cold weather will continue with morning temperatures dropping 1 to 5 degrees compared to the 27th. Throughout the week, morning temperatures are expected to fluctuate between -7°C and 8°C, and daytime temperatures between 1°C and 16°C. In particular, strong winds will likely make the perceived temperature even lower.
