The central region and Jeju Island will be mostly cloudy, while the southern region will start off mostly clear but gradually become cloudy from the morning.

In the morning, less than 0.1 mm of raindrops are expected in parts of the Seoul metropolitan area, including Seoul, Incheon, and western Gyeonggi Province. In the inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon Province, there will be occasional raindrops or light snow flurries from early morning until the afternoon.

In areas experiencing snow or rain, visibility will be reduced, and as temperatures drop, icy or slippery roads are likely to occur. Extra caution is advised for traffic safety.

Fine dust concentrations nationwide will remain at 'good' to 'moderate' levels.
