Tomorrow (the 12th), the Gwangju and Jeonnam regions are expected to be mostly cloudy, with rain likely in the eastern part of Jeonnam between the afternoon and evening. Strong winds, thunder, and lightning are forecasted at sea, so heightened caution is required to prevent maritime accidents involving vessels.


According to the Gwangju Regional Meteorological Administration on the 11th, rain of around 1mm is expected in the eastern areas of Jeonnam between the afternoon and evening of the 12th. While the expected rainfall is not significant, it is likely to be accompanied by gusty winds.


On this day, the morning low will range from -1°C to 4°C, and the daytime high will range from 9°C to 14°C.


Rough conditions are also predicted at sea. In the distant offshore areas of the southern West Sea, strong winds of 7 to 13 meters per second are expected and wave heights will reach 0.5 to 2.5 meters from the 12th to the 13th. In particular, tomorrow in the southern offshore waters, gusty winds, thunder, and lightning are expected, so vessels engaged in navigation or fishing need to be thoroughly prepared.


The southern distant offshore areas of the South Sea are also expected to experience winds of 7 to 12 meters per second and wave heights reaching up to 2.0 meters from tomorrow afternoon.



An official from the Gwangju Regional Meteorological Administration said, "In areas where it rains, visibility will decrease and roads may become slippery, so please pay attention to traffic safety," and added, "Since gusty winds and lightning are forecasted at sea, it is necessary to check weather updates in real time."
