[Weather] Nationwide Daytime Temperatures Rise Above 20°C, Warm... Moderate to Severe Fine Dust in Central-West Regions 'Bad'

Dry Air in the Seoul Metropolitan Area and Gangwon Province

On Sunday the 7th, most of the country will experience clear weather with daytime temperatures rising above 20 degrees Celsius, making it warm.

The morning low temperatures will range from 3 to 12 degrees, and the daytime highs will be between 19 and 25 degrees, higher than the average (morning lows 1 to 9 degrees, daytime highs 14 to 19 degrees). Temperature differences between day and night will be large, around 15 to 20 degrees, especially inland, so health management should be carefully considered.

Dry air conditions will be present mainly in the Seoul metropolitan area and Gangwon Province. In particular, winds will blow somewhat strongly, so small sparks could lead to large fires. Extra caution is required to prevent forest fires and other types of fires during outdoor work and activities.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'bad' in Seoul, Incheon, southern Gyeonggi, Chungbuk, Chungnam, Busan, and Ulsan, while other regions will have 'moderate' levels. Northern Gyeonggi, Daejeon, Sejong, and Jeonbuk are expected to experience temporarily 'bad' levels in the morning and at night.

Sea fog is expected mainly over the West Sea, so caution is advised to prevent maritime safety accidents.

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