[Weather] No cold wave on this Suneung Day under sunny skies, dusty at times


Today is the big day in Korea the 2026 College entrance exam, Suneung, is taking place. Students headed to the test centers did not have to deal with major cold weather this morning, and highs will also rise rapidly to around 17 degrees Celsius in the capital, and even when they get out of the centers after the test, they won't shiver heading back home. However, ultra-fine dust concentration will be high today in many parts of Korea with dusty air carried by northwesterly winds.

-----------------


And this afternoon, most regions will see highs in the upper teens under brighter skies. Heads-up, traffic will be extremely congested from late this afternoon as the parents of test takers pick up their kids, with restaurants also set to be busy this evening. So plan accordingly for your day. After fine autumn weather, Sunday's rain will bring wintry air to the country early next week, repeating our recent Monday chill again next week. Seoul wakes up to 1 degree on Monday and minus 3 degrees on Tuesday.
