◇Anchor> We can still expect it the week after the first snow, but when I saw the situation in France, there was heavy snow. So it snowed so much that the Eiffel Tower Observatory was closed, is it usually snowing a lot at this time?

◆Airport Jin> Looking at the climate characteristics of Paris, there are not many days in Paris that go below zero in November, December, January, and February. So, on average, it's more likely to rain than snow because it shows the temperature of the video, but it's very unusual to see so much snow all at once. So, in France, if it usually snows a lot, it will be well prepared, but it seems that there are many difficulties because it is a rare area to snow.

However, the current abnormal climate phenomenon in Europe is often a little unusual, so climatologists and researchers continue to sound warnings. What I'm saying is that it's a little warm even though it's at a higher latitude than Korea. I told you a while ago that the video continues, and the reason is that the warm ocean flows into northern Europe because it's the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, warm weather continues due to the influence of the current, and the movement of this current is unusual.

There's a warning that the system that transports the hot heat in the south to the north will collapse. If this collapses, it becomes cold in Northern Europe and Europe. Recently, heat waves have continued and large wildfires have occurred in places such as Greece, so Europe is suffering from measles, and these phenomena are likely to worsen. Perhaps the recent snow that falls in Paris now could be interpreted as one of these unusual phenomena.

Therefore, in Europe, there is a high possibility of very extreme weather phenomena that are getting worse in the future, so preparation is necessary. In particular, what Korea cannot be relieved about is that the temperature was very high among this year's characteristics, and there is an interpretation that this high temperature comes from the high sea level temperature. If you look at the global sea level temperature distribution, the sea level temperature on the east coast and east coast of Korea was quite high. As such an unusual phenomenon is likely to occur, it is expected that such efforts to respond and adapt to such extreme climate changes will be needed.

◇Anchor> Let's stop here. I spoke with Airportjin YTN Disaster Advisory Committee. Thank you.
