[Weather] Big temperature swings continue, poor air quality in west

Make sure to dress in layers today to handle the big temperature swings.

This morning, some inland areas are seeing frost, making for a chilly start, but temperatures will rise rapidly by the afternoon.

But again, the air won't be great in parts of the west. Here in Seoul, we may also see worsening fine dust levels in the morning and at night.

Meanwhile, dryness has improved, but dry advisories remain in place for inland Gyeongsangbuk-do Province and southern Jeju. With windy conditions, even a small spark can quickly spread, so please be cautious.

Most regions will be under partly sunny skies with warmer highs than yesterday in central parts at 17 degrees in Seoul and Daejeon, but notice cooler air in the southern areas. Jeju will be much breezier at 13 degrees.

Looking ahead, this Saturday, most of the country will see rain. However, morning and afternoon temperatures will continue to differ by 10 to 15 degrees Celsius, so we will only need jackets for the mornings and evenings, but be sure to keep them handy.
