The expected lowest temperature in Seoul is -4 degrees, and the highest is 6 degrees.

By region, the lowest and highest temperatures are Incheon -4°C and 5°C, Daejeon -5°C and 6°C, Gwangju -2°C and 6°C, Daegu -5°C and 7°C, Ulsan -4°C and 8°C, and Busan 0°C and 8°C.

From the afternoon, snow or rain will fall in Seoul, Incheon, and western Gyeonggi Province. In eastern Gyeonggi and inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon Province, snow will begin falling in the late afternoon.

As temperatures gradually rise, most cold wave warnings will be lifted; however, from the night of Tuesday the 14th, cold air will move southward again, causing temperatures to drop. Between dawn and morning on the 14th, precipitation is expected not only in the Seoul metropolitan area and inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon Province but also in inland Chungcheong and northern inland and northeastern mountainous areas of Gyeongbuk Province.

Expected snowfall amounts will generally be around 1 cm or less, except for 1 to 5 cm in inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon Province, so the amount of snow and rain will not be significant.
