Cold wave warning for most regions... Paju, Cheorwon, and Jecheon drop to -2 degrees in the morning

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Jaeyoung Lee = It will be quite cold on the 28th, with temperatures dropping below freezing in many parts of the inland region. Accordingly, a cold wave warning was issued in most areas.

As cold air continues to flow in from the northwest, temperatures in parts of northeastern Gyeonggi, inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon, North Chungcheong Province, and inland areas of the southern region will fall below 0 degrees on the morning of the 28th.

Frost and ice will form throughout the inland areas, especially in these areas.

The lowest morning temperature across the country will range from -2 degrees to 7 degrees.

The morning temperature suddenly drops by about 5 to 10 degrees throughout the day.

Morning temperatures in Paju and Yeoncheon in Gyeonggi Province, Cheorwon, Hwacheon, Inje, Yanggu, Chuncheon, Hongcheon, Hoengseong, and Pyeongchang in Gangwon Province, Jecheon in North Chungcheong Province, and Yeongyang and Cheongsong in Gyeongbuk Province are expected to drop to -2 degrees.

The highest temperature during the day will remain between 11 and 17 degrees.

The expected minimum and maximum temperatures in major cities are 2 degrees and 13 degrees in Seoul, 3 and 12 degrees in Incheon, 1 and 13 degrees in Daejeon, 3 and 15 degrees in Gwangju, 1 and 14 degrees in Daegu, 5 and 15 degrees in Ulsan, and 7 and 17 degrees in Busan.

Strong winds will lower the perceived temperature below the temperature.

Strong winds of more than 70 km per hour (90 km in mountainous areas) are expected to continue on the Jeonnam coast and Jeju until the morning of the 28th. Starting on the night of the 27th, similar strong winds will blow on the Gyeongsang-dong coast. In addition, the southern region will also have strong winds, with instantaneous wind speeds reaching around 55 km/h (70 km/h in mountainous areas) by the morning of the 28th.

The cold will continue until Thursday, the 29th, after which temperatures will return to normal levels.

On the 29th, the lowest morning temperature is expected to be -1 to 8 degrees and the highest daytime temperature is expected to be 13 to 18 degrees, the 30th to be 5 to 14 degrees and 17 to 22 degrees, and the 31st to be 2 to 11 degrees and 14 to 20 degrees.

Due to the strong gravitational force of the moon, the sea level is higher than usual, and as the swell flows into the east coast on the 28th, high waves will be strong and dangerous. You should avoid going to the coast if possible.

A wind warning has been issued for most of the sea, and the wind will blow very strongly at 30-70 km (8-20 m/s) until the 28th, and the waves will be very high at 1.5-4.0 m (more than 5.0 m in the remote waters of the central East Sea and the northern waters of the southern East Sea), so be careful when sailing or fishing.
