Brief Morning Chill Tomorrow... "Sub-Zero Cold Expected This Weekend"

While colorful autumn foliage speaks of the season, the chilly air already brings winter to mind.

[Kim Ji-eun / Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul: I dressed up a bit in autumn clothes, but it was colder than I thought. Starting tomorrow, I think I should just skip dressing up and wear winter clothes.]

[Song Su-jin / Mapo-gu, Seoul: It feels like the cold is approaching even faster compared to last year.]

Today's daytime high in Seoul reached 14.7°C, showing normal weather levels, but temperatures will plummet tomorrow morning.

This is because a moving high-pressure system is expanding toward the Korean Peninsula, causing cold air from the northwest to flow southward.

Tomorrow morning temperatures will be low, particularly centering around the central regions, with Seoul at 4°C, Daegwallyong at -2°C, and Cheorwon at 0°C.

However, temperatures will recover to normal levels again starting tomorrow afternoon.

Afterwards, temperatures will remain around normal levels throughout this week, but it will begin to turn cold again starting Friday night, bringing sub-zero morning temperatures nationwide over the weekend.

Meanwhile, yellow dust originating from sources such as the Inner Mongolian Plateau the day before yesterday is affecting the Seoul metropolitan area and other regions.

Yellow dust was observed in the Seoul metropolitan area, parts of the west coast, and Jeju Island, while high concentrations of fine dust were also observed in other central regions.

In Seoul, the fine dust concentration temporarily soared to 117 micrograms per cubic meter in the afternoon, reaching the "bad" level.

Additional yellow dust may flow into some western areas tonight, but fine dust concentrations are expected to return to "moderate" to "good" levels starting tomorrow.
