Sat Apr 26 03:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Weekend Weather Forecast: Mild Temperatures, Strong Winds, and Fire Risk
**Jeju Island, South Korea (October 26, 2024)** – While visitors enjoyed the vibrant rapeseed flowers at Boromwat Farm in Seogwipo, Jeju Island on Thursday, the weekend weather forecast presents a mixed bag of pleasant temperatures and strong winds, raising concerns about fire hazards.
Saturday will start chilly, but spring-like weather is expected to return in the afternoon. Sunday will be mostly sunny. While Saturday morning temperatures will be slightly below average (2-10°C), daytime highs will reach 17-25°C, similar to or slightly above average (18-22°C). However, significant temperature differences between day and night (up to 15°C inland, 20°C in eastern areas) necessitate caution. Air quality will remain generally “good,” although residual fine dust from Friday is expected.
Strong winds (over 55km/h, 70km/h in mountainous areas) are forecast for the coming days. Wind advisories are likely for mountainous regions of Gangwon and Gyeongbuk from Saturday night onward. Extremely dry conditions and strong winds in Gangwon’s eastern coast, southern Chungbuk, parts of eastern Jeolla, and Gyeongsang provinces, where dry weather advisories are in effect, pose a significant fire risk. Authorities urge extreme caution.
Sunday’s forecast also includes mostly clear skies, turning partly cloudy later. Temperatures will range from 6-15°C in the morning and 17-27°C in the afternoon, with significant daily temperature differences. Jeju Island anticipates cloudy skies with rain starting Sunday night. Strong winds (over 70km/h) are expected along the east coasts of Gangwon and northern Gyeongbuk, necessitating caution against potential hazards like fire.
