In the metropolitan area, inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, the Chungcheong region, Jeolla region, and Jeju Island, there will be showers until the evening. Expected rainfall from showers is 5 to 60 mm in the metropolitan area and inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, and 5 to 40 mm in the Chungcheong and Honam regions and Jeju Island.

Fine dust levels will be 'Good' to 'Moderate' across all regions due to smooth atmospheric dispersion.

Sea waves will be low, with 0.5 to 1.5 meters in the East Sea coastal waters, 0.5 meters in the West Sea coastal waters, and 0.5 to 1.0 meters in the South Sea coastal waters. On the East Coast, high waves caused by swell may reach the sandy beaches, so caution is advised for water safety accidents along the coast.
