As of 5 a.m. that day, temperatures in major regions are Seoul 1.9°C, Incheon 4.7°C, Suwon 0.0°C, Chuncheon -1.9°C, Gangneung 10.3°C, Cheongju 2.4°C, Daejeon 0.1°C, Jeonju 4.7°C, Gwangju 4.8°C, Jeju 9.5°C, Daegu 0.0°C, Busan 5.7°C, Ulsan 2.1°C, Changwon 2.1°C, etc. The highest daytime temperature will be between 11 and 18°C.


Fine dust concentration is predicted to be at 'Good' to 'Moderate' levels across all regions. However, in the Seoul metropolitan area, fine dust is expected to temporarily reach 'Unhealthy' levels in the morning due to residual fine dust from the previous day and atmospheric stagnation causing accumulation of domestically generated fine dust.



Sea waves will be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea nearshore, and 0.5 to 3.0 meters in the West Sea and South Sea nearshore. In the offshore seas (about 200 km from the coastline), wave heights are predicted to be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea, 1.0 to 4.0 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 4.0 meters in the South Sea.
