[Asia Economy Reporter Park So-yeon] On Thursday the 4th, hot weather is expected with daytime highs exceeding 30 degrees Celsius in some areas.

According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, the morning low temperatures are forecasted to be between 17 and 22 degrees Celsius, and daytime highs between 22 and 35 degrees Celsius. Seoul is expected to have a low of 19 degrees and a high of 26 degrees. Daegu's daytime high is expected to rise to 35 degrees.

Light drizzle of less than 5mm is expected until morning along the west coast, south coast, and some inland areas.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'moderate' across all regions, but concentrations in the western areas are expected to be somewhat higher in the morning due to stagnant air and the influx of foreign fine dust.

Sea waves will be 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the East Sea nearshore, 0.5 meters in the West Sea nearshore, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea nearshore.

Wave heights in the open sea are expected to be 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the South Sea.
