In Yeongseo, Gangwon Province, there may be rain accompanied by gusts and lightning until early morning. The expected precipitation is less than 5mm.

In the northern inland areas of Chungbuk and Gyeongbuk, raindrops less than 0.1mm are expected in some areas until early morning.

The morning low temperatures are expected to range from 5 to 13 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs from 18 to 24 degrees Celsius. These are similar to or slightly lower than the average (morning lows 7 to 13 degrees, daytime highs 19 to 24 degrees). The temperature difference between day and night is expected to be around 15 degrees, especially in the southern regions, so special attention to health management is advised.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'normal' nationwide. The air will be very dry, especially around Yeongdong, Gangwon Province.

Strong winds will also blow, so extra caution is needed to prevent wildfires and other fire hazards.

Sea waves are expected to be 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the East Sea and West Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea coastal waters. In the offshore waters (about 200 km from the coastline), wave heights are predicted to be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the West and South Seas. Gusts and lightning are expected in the offshore East Sea, so caution is advised for maritime safety.
