Thursday, the 11th, will be cloudy from the afternoon amid thick fog and fine dust in the western area.
As of 5 a.m. on that day, the temperature in major regions across the country is 5.2 degrees in Seoul, 3.7 degrees in Incheon, 2.2 degrees in Suwon, 0.7 degrees in Chuncheon, 6.5 degrees in Gangneung, 4.5 degrees in Cheongju, 3.5 degrees in Daejeon, 5 degrees in Jeonju, 6.6 degrees in Gwangju, and 11.4 degrees in Jeju. , Daegu 1.8 degrees, Busan 7.1 degrees, Ulsan 3.4 degrees, and Changwon 4.7 degrees.
The highest temperature during the day was forecast to be 13 to 19 degrees Celsius.
As the daytime temperature rises, the temperature difference between daytime and night will be very large, around 15 degrees. Care should be taken not to cause any abnormalities in health such as decreased immunity.
As the temperature decreases overnight while the surface is humid, there are places where thick fog with a visibility distance of 200m or less occurs until 10:00 am, centering on the western coast of the Gyeonggi area and the western coast of Chungnam.
In eastern Gyeonggi Province, Yeongdong, Gangwon, inland Chungnam, and inland Jeonbuk, fog is expected to be less than 1km, and the fog may be dense near rivers and lakes.
In particular, roads and bridges adjacent to the west coast, such as Seohae Bridge, Yeongjong Bridge, and Incheon Bridge, may have very short visibility to 200m or less, so we need to pay attention to traffic safety.
Air and maritime traffic near the west coast may also interfere with operation. Users must check flight information in advance.
As the atmosphere is stagnant, fog (a phenomenon in which fine particles such as smoke and fine dust appear fluffy) will be densely formed around the western region.
The fine dust grade is’very bad’ for Seoul, southern Gyeonggi, and Chungnam,’bad’ for Incheon, northern Gyeonggi, Gangwon Yeongseo, Daejeon, Sejong, Chungbuk, Gwangju, and Jeonbuk, and’good’ to’normal’ for other areas. It is expected. Incheon, northern Gyeonggi and Sejong will temporarily show’very bad’ levels in the morning.
The National Academy of Environmental Sciences explained that “the previous day, fine dust remains and the concentration of domestic fine dust accumulates due to atmospheric stagnation.”
From this night, it will start raining in Jeju Island and the Jeonnam region, and it will expand to the southern regions at dawn.
Estimated precipitation until the 12th is less than 20 to 60 mm in Jeju Island, 10 to 40 mm in the southern coast of Jeonnam and the coast of Gyeongnam area, and less than 5 mm in Chungcheong area and Gyeongbuk area. Honam area, inland Gyeongnam, and Yeongdong, Gangwon are expected to reach 5-10 mm from the afternoon of the 12th.
The waves of the sea will rise from 0.5 to 1.5 m off the east and south seas and 0.5 to 1.0 m off the west sea. The far sea wave height is forecast to be 0.5 to 2.0 m in the east and west seas and 0.5 to 2.5 m in the south sea.
