Expected precipitation amounts are 5 to 40 mm in inland Seoul and Gyeonggi, inland and mountainous Gangwon, Daejeon, Sejong, Chungnam, Chungbuk, Gwangju, Jeonnam, inland Ulsan, and inland Gyeongnam, and 5 to 60 mm in Daegu, Gyeongbuk, and inland Jeonbuk.

In areas where showers occur, there may be gusty winds accompanied by thunder and lightning, so caution is advised to prevent maritime safety accidents.

The morning low temperatures on the 11th are forecast to be between 19 and 23 degrees Celsius, and the daytime highs between 25 and 32 degrees Celsius.

The Korea Meteorological Administration explained, "For the time being, the highest apparent temperatures will rise to around 31 degrees Celsius in most parts of the country, making it hot, and especially in the metropolitan area under heatwave warnings and inland Gangwon, the highest apparent temperatures will rise above 33 degrees Celsius, making it very hot."

Until tomorrow morning, dense fog with visibility less than 200 meters is expected mainly in the northern Chungnam West Coast where sea fog is flowing in, the Gyeongnam coast, inland Gyeonggi and Gangwon where temperatures drop overnight, and northern inland Chungcheong.

The Korea Meteorological Administration urged, "On bridges located on the coast (such as Seohae Bridge, Geoga Bridge, etc.), roads near rivers, lakes, and valleys inland, fog may be thicker than surrounding areas, so special attention to traffic safety is required when driving."

Fine dust levels will be 'Good' to 'Moderate' nationwide due to smooth atmospheric dispersion.

Sea waves will be 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the near seas of the East Sea, West Sea, and South Sea. Wave heights in the outer seas (about 200 km from the coastline) are forecast to be 0.5 to 2.5 meters in the East Sea and South Sea, and 0.5 to 2.0 meters in the West Sea.
