Seoul recorded the heaviest snowfall in November today?

[Caster]
Yes, it is. As of 7 a.m. today, 16.5cm of snow also accumulated in Seoul, recording the highest snowfall in November since the weather observation.

Now that it's daytime, snow is falling more often, and the temperature is rising a bit and the snow is melting.

Therefore, half-melted snow is piled up around the side road, and the road is very slippery.

Both drivers and pedestrians should move carefully today.

If you look at the radar image, it's still raining or snowing in most areas, but now the snow is weak.

However, heavy snow is expected again tonight, so it's an emergency.

Strong snow will fall again, mainly in the Midwest and the interior of the South,

Heavy snow of more than 15cm will also fall in northern Chungcheongbuk-do and eastern Jeollabuk-do.

Temperatures have also plummeted overnight.

The temperature in Seoul this morning was -1.3 degrees, a new low this fall.

Even in the middle of the day, the temperature will stop at 2 degrees, and the days will get colder by Friday.

You should take better care of the facilities.
