As smog from China flows in again from the afternoon, the concentration of ultrafine dust in the Midwest is expected to rise to a "bad" level overnight.

In the second half of the week, it is expected to rain in Jeju and the south due to the rain clouds left by the typhoon.

I'll connect you to a reporter.

Reporter Kim Min-kyung, the season of fine dust has come in earnest. Smog from China is coming in again?

[Reporter]
Yes, now the concentration of ultrafine dust nationwide is 10 to 20μg per cubic meter, and the air quality is pleasant from 'good' to 'normal'.

But in the afternoon, smog from China is expected to flow into the upper atmosphere in the Midwest.

The inflow of smog from China is the first in three days following last Sunday afternoon.

In the afternoon, the concentration of ultrafine dust will not increase significantly due to smooth air diffusion, but
During the night of
, as the atmosphere stagnates, there will be places in the metropolitan area and some areas of Chungnam where the concentration of ultrafine dust is 36 to 75μg per cubic meter.

Until tomorrow morning, the concentration of ultrafine dust in the Midwest is expected to remain at a "bad" level, but as the air spreads gradually from the afternoon, the air quality is expected to recover to a normal level from good.In the fall season of

From the day after tomorrow, it will rain a lot in Jeju due to the rain clouds left by the typhoon?

[Reporter]
Yes, that’s right.

Currently, Typhoon Kongrey, the 21st typhoon in southeastern Taiwan, is moving toward Taiwan in a very strong century.

By tomorrow afternoon, it will penetrate inland Taiwan and then rapidly weaken its power, which will later weaken to a temperate cyclone.

The Korean Peninsula will not be directly affected by typhoons.

However, as the rain clouds left by the typhoon move to the northeast, it is expected to rain mainly on Jeju Island and the southern part of the country from the day after tomorrow.

First of all, a lot of rain is expected the day after tomorrow around Jeju Island.

Up to 100mm of rain is expected on Jeju Island, 10 to 50mm on the southern coast, and 5 to 40mm on the southern inland.

In particular, Jeju Island is expected to receive strong rain of about 20 to 30 millimeters per hour with gusts of wind, thunder, and lightning the day after tomorrow, so caution is needed.

As the high waves generated by the typhoon spread to Korea, the waves are expected to hit high on the South Sea.

Strong winds and waves of up to 4m are expected to be high around Jeju Island, the South Sea, and the southern sea of the West Sea.

The effects of the rain clouds left by the typhoon are expected to continue over the weekend.

The agency said it would announce the expected precipitation by the end of the week in a notice in the late afternoon.
