**Seoul, South Korea (October 7, 2023)** – South Korea is expected to experience a significant temperature swing this weekend, with mild daytime temperatures and chilly mornings and evenings, according to the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). The KMA warned of a large daily temperature difference of up to 10 degrees Celsius, urging residents to take precautions for their health.

Saturday will see lows of -3 to 5 degrees Celsius and highs of 8 to 12 degrees Celsius. Central regions can expect partly cloudy skies, clearing in the afternoon, while southern areas and Jeju Island will remain mostly cloudy. Light rain is forecast for parts of the country, with up to 1mm in Chungcheong-do, 5mm in Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do, and 5-10mm in Jeju-do.

Sunday will bring warmer temperatures, thanks to a warm southwesterly wind.

The nationwide forecast is mostly sunny, with some cloud cover in the south and on Jeju Island.

The KMA cautioned that areas experiencing rain may experience fog overnight. The National Institute of Environmental Research also issued a forecast that the air quality in the Seoul metropolitan area and Chungcheong region will be poor on Saturday due to remaining fine dust particles, gradually improving throughout the day. Other areas will enjoy good to moderate air quality. Similar conditions are expected for Sunday, with the exception of continued poor air quality in the Seoul metropolitan area, Chungnam, and Sejong.
