On Saturday, light rain that fell overnight in the metropolitan area and central regions will cease, giving way to clearer skies by morning. Morning temperatures will drop to around 3 degrees Celsius, but daytime highs are expected to reach 21 degrees.
Due to a pressure trough moving from the north, light rain of about 1 mm is forecasted for most of the metropolitan area, excluding northwestern Gyeonggi Province, as well as inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, northern Sejong, northern Chungcheong, and central and northern Chungbuk.
In northwestern Gyeonggi Province and other parts of Chungcheong, as well as central and northern inland areas of Jeollabuk-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do, less than 0.1 mm of rain is expected. The Korea Meteorological Administration predicts that the rain will mostly stop around 6 a.m.
Skies will gradually clear from the morning due to the influence of high pressure over the West Sea, but will become cloudy again by night.
Morning low temperatures are forecasted to range from 3 to 12 degrees, while daytime highs will be between 14 and 21 degrees, similar to the seasonal averages (lows of 1 to 11 degrees, highs of 15 to 20 degrees).
Expected morning low temperatures in major cities include: Seoul 9 degrees, Incheon 9 degrees, Chuncheon 5 degrees, Gangneung 11 degrees, Daejeon 9 degrees, Daegu 8 degrees, Jeonju 9 degrees, Gwangju 10 degrees, Busan 12 degrees, and Jeju 15 degrees.
Daytime highs are expected to be: Seoul 14 degrees, Incheon 14 degrees, Chuncheon 15 degrees, Gangneung 19 degrees, Daejeon 17 degrees, Daegu 19 degrees, Jeonju 18 degrees, Gwangju 19 degrees, Busan 21 degrees, and Jeju 21 degrees.
In particular, the temperature difference between day and night in the Gyeongsang region is expected to be around 10 degrees, so residents are advised to take care of their health.
Dense fog with visibility below 200 meters is expected in inland areas of Chungcheongnam-do, central and northern Chungbuk, inland Jeollabuk-do, Jeollanam-do, and central and northern Gyeongsangbuk-do until the morning.
Due to the dense fog, there may be light drizzle or disruptions to air travel, so caution is advised for transportation, and passengers are encouraged to check flight information in advance.
Fine dust levels are expected to be at 'good' to 'moderate' levels across all regions. However, Chungcheong Province may experience 'bad' levels until the morning, while Honam and Daegu-Gyeongbuk regions may see 'bad' levels temporarily in the morning, and Busan, Ulsan, Gyeongnam, and Jeju may also experience 'bad' levels for a short time in the morning.
