[Weather] Large daily temperature swings under sunny skies with decent air quality

Stunning spring flowers are welcoming the new week.

Cherry blossoms have officially begun to bloom here in the capital, painting the city in beautiful shades of pink. However, please be mindful of the wide temperature gap between day and night.

In the afternoon, temperatures will rise to 20 degrees Celsius in Seoul and 24 degrees Celsius in Daegu, feeling more like the end of April in most parts of Korea under sunny skies with decent air quality. That's thanks to Saturday's rain that washed away lingering dust and also eased the dryness in the air.

Then there will be late night spotty rain in central parts of Korea, but the amount will be less than 5 millimeters.

Speaking of which, rain is in the forecast in central regions on Wednesday afternoon, spreading nationwide through Thursday dawn, then another band of rain is in the forecast for Saturday! Meanwhile, cherry blossoms are expected to reach full bloom across many areas this week. So make the most of it if you can!
