According to the Korea Meteorological Administration on the 4th, the minimum temperature the next morning is expected to range from -3 to 6 degrees Celsius, and the daytime maximum temperature is forecasted to be between 9 and 16 degrees Celsius. During this period, temperatures typically range from a minimum of -7 to 4 degrees Celsius and a maximum of 4 to 12 degrees Celsius.


The expected minimum and maximum temperatures in major cities are as follows: Seoul and Incheon 2°C to 11°C, Daejeon -1°C to 12°C, Gwangju 2°C to 14°C, Daegu 1°C to 13°C, Ulsan 3°C to 15°C, and Busan 6°C to 16°C. Temperatures in the southern regions and Jeju will rise to around 15 degrees Celsius, but the temperature difference between day and night will widen to 10 to 15 degrees Celsius, so caution is advised regarding the daily temperature variation.


South Korea is under the influence of a mobile high-pressure system located near Shanghai, China, bringing relatively warm westerly winds and resulting in mild conditions. These westerly winds continue to dry out the eastern areas of the Baekdudaegan mountain range. A dry weather advisory has been issued for Gangwon Yeongdong, the Gyeongsang coastal areas, and the northeastern mountainous regions of Gyeongbuk.



Fine dust levels in Seoul, Incheon, and northern Gyeonggi Province are expected to be at 'bad' levels the next day. Southern Gyeonggi, Gangwon Yeongseo, and Chungcheong provinces may experience 'bad' fine dust levels temporarily in the morning and at night. This poor air quality is believed to be caused by the accumulation of domestically generated fine dust due to stagnant atmospheric conditions. However, on the 6th, fine dust originating from abroad is expected to be carried in by westerly winds, causing fine dust levels to be 'bad' in most regions nationwide.
