On this day, the inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon and the northeastern mountainous areas of Gyeongbuk will have morning temperatures around -10 degrees Celsius, while other central regions and inland Gyeongbuk will drop to around -5 degrees Celsius.

The morning low temperatures are forecasted to be between -10 and 1 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs between 1 and 10 degrees Celsius. In areas where snow has accumulated, melted snow during the day may refreeze overnight as temperatures drop below freezing, creating icy roads or black ice, so caution is advised for safety.

Fine dust levels are expected to be 'Good' to 'Moderate' nationwide. However, the Seoul metropolitan area, Sejong, Chungbuk, Chungnam, Gwangju, and Jeonbuk are forecasted to experience temporarily 'Unhealthy' levels in the morning.

For the time being, swells will be entering the east coast of Gangwon and the coastal areas of Gyeongsang, so special attention should be paid to coastal safety accidents and facility management. Sea waves are expected to be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea nearshore, 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the West Sea nearshore, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the South Sea nearshore. The wave heights in the offshore seas (about 200 km from the coastline) are predicted to be 1.0 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea, 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the West Sea, and 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the South Sea.
