Temperatures are falling... Cold northwest wind blows, causing temperatures to drop starting Tuesday night

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Jaeyoung Lee = Temperatures will drop starting at night on the 27th due to cold air flowing in from the northwest.

Cold air will come in as northwest winds blow along the edge of high pressure moving southeast from northern China.

Accordingly, the temperature above the normal temperature (minimum 3 to 12 degrees, maximum 17 to 21 degrees) until the 26th will be similar to the average temperature on the 27th, and will be below normal temperature on the 28th.

The lowest temperature on the morning of the 27th is expected to be 5 to 15 degrees, and the highest temperature during the day is expected to be 15 to 20 degrees.

The expected minimum and maximum temperatures in major cities are 10 and 16 degrees in Seoul, 10 and 15 degrees in Incheon, 10 and 17 degrees in Daejeon, 13 and 18 degrees in Gwangju and Daegu, 12 and 18 degrees in Ulsan, and 14 and 19 degrees in Busan.

On the 28th, the lowest morning temperature will drop to between -2 and 7 degrees.

The morning temperature on the 27th and 28th will drop sharply by 5 to 10 degrees, and some parts of the inland areas of northeastern Gyeonggi, inland and mountainous Gangwon, North Chungcheong Province, and southern regions will fall below freezing.

The highest temperature during the day on the 28th will remain between 11 and 16 degrees.

As the wind intensifies, with instantaneous wind speeds reaching around 70 km/h (90 km in mountainous areas) on the 27th, centered on the west coast, parts of the south Jeonnam coast, Jeju, and the east coast of Gyeongsang, the perceived temperature will be lower than the air temperature.

It will be cold as the temperature drops and cold winds blow, so be careful.

In the case of the sea, from the 27th, winds will blow strongly at 30 to 70 km per hour (8 to 20 m/s) in the West Sea, the far southwestern sea, the sea off Jeju, the central East Sea, and the southern and northern seas of the East Sea, and waves will begin to rise at a height of 1.5 to 3.5 m.

The maximum wave height in the remote waters of the central East Sea and the northern and southern East Sea will be more than 5.0 m.

Storms will also become stronger in the rest of the sea between the afternoon of the 27th and the 28th, so be careful when sailing or fishing.
