Chilly weather is expected to greet commuters Tuesday morning as the holiday weekend comes to a close.
Morning temperatures across inland areas nationwide are forecast to hover around 10 degrees Celsius, with Gangwon Province's inland and mountainous regions expected to dip below 5 degrees. Strong gusts reaching around 55 kilometers per hour — up to 70 kph in mountain areas — will make it feel even colder.
Wide temperature swings are also in store, with the gap between daytime highs and overnight lows expected to reach about 15 degrees across most of the country.
Rough seas will also require caution for maritime activities. Wave heights are forecast at 0.5 to 2.0 meters off the East Sea coast, 0.5 to 3.0 meters off the West Sea coast, and 0.5 to 1.5 meters off the South Sea coast.
