Rain is expected in parts of the country early next week (the 5th–9th), but mostly clear weather will follow. The day-night temperature difference is expected to reach around 10 degrees Celsius, particularly inland, so people should take care of their health.
According to the Korean Meteorological Administration on the 3rd, morning temperatures next week are expected to range from 5 to 18°C, while daytime temperatures will range from 19 to 27°C, similar to or slightly above the seasonal average.
On Monday the 5th, morning lows are expected to range from 11 to 17°C, with daytime highs ranging from 19 to 25°C.
Rain will begin late at night on the 4th in Seoul, Incheon Metropolitan City, northern Gyeonggi Province, and the northern inland areas of Gangwon Province. It is expected to spread to the central regions, Jeolla region, northwestern inland parts of North Gyeongsang Province, western inland parts of South Gyeongsang Province, and Jeju Island from dawn through the morning of the 5th.
Expected precipitation is 5–30 mm in Incheon, northern Gyeonggi Province, the Five West Sea Islands, and the northern inland areas of Gangwon Province, and 5–10 mm in Seoul and southern Gyeonggi Province. Most other areas are expected to receive around 5 mm or less of rain.
