[Weather] Light rain in central areas, staying above norms


Those of us in the capital area will see a brief mix of rain and snow. It won't be much, so it shouldn't cause major disruption, but there are a few things to watch out for. Most areas will see 1 to 5 millimeters of rain but mountainous parts of Gangwon-do could see up to 3 centimeters of snow.

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


Please be extra cautious when walking or driving. This afternoon will be 1 to 5 degrees higher than yesterday under cloudy skies. Seoul could reach 8 degrees Celsius, while Gwangju and Busan are getting up to 13 degrees. But as the cold eases, another issue returns—fine dust. Starting today, air quality will gradually worsen in the central and western regions.

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


Stagnant air combined with dust arriving from overseas on northwesterly winds will push pollution levels higher. Dusty air will stay with us as the temperatures will stay above seasonal norms this week. Meanwhile, wintry precipitation is expected on Saturday!
