Fine dust concentrations will reach 'bad' levels in Seoul, Incheon, southern Gyeonggi, the Chungcheong region, Gwangju, and Jeonbuk. From the afternoon, the concentration will rise further due to the influx of pollutants from overseas.



Wave heights will be 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the coastal waters of the East Sea and South Sea, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the coastal waters of the West Sea. In the offshore areas (up to about 200 kilometers from the coastline), wave heights will be 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the East Sea and West Sea, and 1.0 to 2.5 meters in the South Sea.
