Mind the Large Daily Temperature Range Today; First Sub-Zero Cold Expected in Seoul This Weekend

As autumn deepens, cold snaps are rolling in from time to time.

Today (November 4), late-autumn weather typical for this time of year is expected without any severe cold.

However, with the daily temperature range widening significantly to around 15°C (27°F) mainly in the inland areas of the central region, you will need to pay attention to your attire.

Meanwhile, rain is forecast to begin in Jeju starting late this afternoon.

This rain will expand nationwide tomorrow.

The expected rainfall amounts are up to 40 mm in South Jeolla, South Gyeongsang, and Jeju, with heavy downpours of up to 60 mm in the mountainous areas of Jeju. The greater Seoul area will see a relatively small amount of around 5 mm.

Dense fog will blanket parts of the central region, North Gyeongsang, and inland North Jeolla until this morning.

Looking closely at morning temperatures, Seoul and Gwangju both start at 8°C (46°F), which is about 3°C to 4°C higher than yesterday.

Daytime highs are forecast at 18°C (64°F) in Seoul and 19°C (66°F) in Busan, similar to or slightly higher than yesterday.

The weather is set to turn cold again starting Friday.

On Saturday morning, which marks Ipdong (the beginning of winter on the lunar calendar), Seoul will experience its first sub-zero cold of this autumn.
