Good afternoon. We'll see increasing clouds across the nation, and highs will be a tad lower than yesterday. Seoul, Daejeon, Daegu and Busan will reach 10 degrees this afternoon.

There's rain in the forecast for Jeju and the southern coastal regions this afternoon before it spreads to the rest of the country by Thursday. Seoul will also see a mix of rain and sleet overnight with up to 10 millimeters expected.

That band of rain will bring down temperatures a couple of notches, but starting next week we should feel the warmth of spring.

And soon the nation will be covered with pink and yellow. Jeju could see forsythias blooming as early this weekend, while those of us in Seoul will have to wait another 3 weeks or so to see the spring blossom.
