2018-05-21 1

Good morning. The refreshing weekend weather was welcomed by all all here in Korea and we'll have similar weather conditions to start the new week.

Easterly winds cleared away the fine dust in the air, so temperatures in the eastern regions, including Daegu, had cooler than average readings. Temperatures will rise a bit,... but we will see another relatively breezy day. Those of us in the capital will have slightly higher daily highs.

For a closer look, Seoul and Daejeon and Gwangju are kicking off at 12 degrees. Chuncheon is having a chilly morning at a low of 7 degrees, but highs will rise rapidly and soar to nearly 20 degrees by the afternoon in Chuncheon...

rising to 26 degrees, while the rest will also see a big jump in daily highs...getting up to 24 degrees in Seoul and Daejeon,... while Gyeongju will top out at 21.

Tomorrow is Buddha's Birthday, a national holiday in Korea... and seems many are taking a day off from work today as well, we have rain in the forecast tomorrow evening which will linger into Wednesday

That's Korea for you and here's the international weather for viewers around the world.
