Special cold wave warnings are in effect in Gangwon Province and Chungcheong provinces, but the regions will also see increases in temperature, with the flow of the relatively warmer westerly winds onto the peninsula, the Korea Meteorological Administration said.

The fine dust levels will be normal across the region, but some areas, including the metropolitan cities, Gangwon Province, and Gwangju will be rated as bad before noon.
