Large Temperature Ranges in Inland Areas... Caution Advised for Dense Morning Fog

These days feel like transitioning between two seasons within a single day.

Today (September 16), temperature ranges will be wide, particularly across inland areas.

Currently, Seoul is starting off somewhat chilly at 14.4°C (58°F), Chuncheon at 10.2°C (50°F), and Chungju at 11.2°C (52°F).

During midday, strong sunshine will rapidly raise temperatures, making it quite warm.

With large temperature swings, you should pay attention to your attire to avoid catching a cold.

As strong solar radiation beats down during the day, ultraviolet index levels nationwide will rise from high to very high.

In the afternoon, ozone concentrations will be high in the Seoul metropolitan area, South Chungcheong Province, and South Jeolla Province.

Nationwide skies will be mostly clear today.

During the morning commute, fog will be somewhat dense in Gangwon Province and northern Gyeongbuk Province, so drivers should exercise caution.

A small amount of rain, less than 5 mm (0.2 inches), is expected in the mountainous areas of Jeju today.

Busan is currently starting at 21.8°C (71°F).

Gwangju is expected to rise to 30°C (86°F) this midday.

Rain is forecasted for Jeju and the east coast regions later in the week.
