According to the Korea Meteorological Administration on the 31st, by Tuesday the 2nd, daytime temperatures will rise to around 15 to 20 degrees Celsius in the central region, and above 20 degrees Celsius in the southern region and Jeju Island. The temperature difference between day and night is expected to be very large, exceeding 15 degrees on the 1st and over 20 degrees on the 2nd.


On Monday the 1st, the nationwide expected morning low temperatures range from -1 to 10 degrees Celsius, and daytime highs range from 15 to 23 degrees Celsius. On the 2nd, morning lows will be between 2 and 12 degrees Celsius, and daytime highs between 14 and 25 degrees Celsius. The nationwide fine dust forecast grade is expected to be 'normal' due to smooth atmospheric dispersion and the retreat of yellow dust.


On the late afternoon of the 2nd, rain is possible in Jeju Island, and at night, rain may fall in the Jeolla and Gyeongnam regions. In Gangwon Yeongdong, where a dry weather advisory has been issued, winds will blow somewhat strongly, so small sparks could lead to large fires; therefore, fire caution is necessary.



From the afternoon of the 2nd, very strong winds blowing at 35 to 60 km/h (10 to 16 m/s) are expected in the outer seas of the southern West Sea and south of Jeju Island, and from night, in the inner seas of the southern West Sea, southwestern South Sea, outer eastern South Sea, and other seas around Jeju Island. Waves will be very high, reaching 2.0 to 4.0 meters, so vessels engaged in navigation or fishing should exercise special caution.
