On Sunday, May 10, clear skies are expected nationwide, but significant temperature differences will occur, particularly in inland areas.
The Korea Meteorological Administration announced on May 9 that the country will be influenced by a high-pressure system moving from near Shanghai, China, to the southern seas.
Morning low temperatures will range from 6 to 14 degrees Celsius, while daytime highs are expected to be between 21 and 27 degrees, which is around average or slightly above. However, the temperature difference between day and night in inland areas could reach 15 to 20 degrees, necessitating attention to health management.
Morning temperatures in major cities are forecasted as follows: Seoul 10°C, Incheon 10°C, Suwon 9°C, Chuncheon 8°C, Gangneung 13°C, Cheongju 9°C, Daejeon 9°C, Jeonju 9°C, Gwangju 8°C, Daegu 10°C, Busan 12°C, and Jeju 11°C.
Daytime highs are predicted to be: Seoul 25°C, Incheon 23°C, Suwon 25°C, Chuncheon 25°C, Gangneung 26°C, Cheongju 26°C, Daejeon 26°C, Jeonju 26°C, Gwangju 25°C, Daegu 26°C, Busan 22°C, and Jeju 21°C.
The atmosphere will be very dry. In areas under dry warnings, including parts of Seoul, Gyeonggi Province, the eastern coast of Gangwon, North Chungcheong, and North Gyeongsang, extreme dryness poses a heightened risk for wildfires and other fire hazards.
From early morning to the morning hours, fog with visibility of less than 1 kilometer is expected, particularly in South Jeolla Province. Roads near rivers, lakes, and valleys may experience denser fog, requiring caution for traffic safety.
On the seas, fog is anticipated primarily over the Yellow Sea. Vessels engaged in navigation or fishing should be cautious of safety hazards. Wave heights are expected to be 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the East and West Seas, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea. Offshore wave heights are forecasted to be 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea.
Fine dust levels are expected to be at a 'good' level across all regions.
