[Weather] 'The strongest cold wave' felt during the daytime in Seoul. -15℃...Heavy snow on Honam's west coast

[Anchor]
Today is the coldest this winter.

The cold wind is blowing hard even during the day, and heavy snow continues around the west coast of Honam.

I'll look into the weather in detail. Castor Lee Hyemin!

Yes, it's in Gwanghwamun Square.

The wind looks very strong, but today is the coldest day?

[Caster]
Yes, it is. Today is the coldest this winter.

It's midday and it's time for the temperature to rise high, but Seoul is still around -8 degrees.

In particular, the wind is very strong today, so the cold feeling is much worse, and the current temperature is -15 degrees.

I've been taking this ice cream outside for about 30 minutes,

The current temperature is not at the level of the freezer, so it's not frozen, but the ice cream that should normally melt is still hardened.

In the future, the temperature will drop again, and Seoul will feel -18 degrees Celsius on the way home from work today.

You need to bring warm things and come out.

As the strong cold goes south overnight, the bitter cold continues all day today.

While the 'Hanpa Special Report' has been expanded and strengthened to most parts of the country, the extreme cold will continue tomorrow.

Tomorrow morning, Seoul -12 degrees, Chuncheon -19 degrees, Daejeon and Daegu -12 degrees are also expected.

During the day, it will be -2 degrees in Seoul, 0 degrees in Daejeon and Gwangju, 1 degree in Daegu, and the daytime temperature will be 3-5 degrees higher than today.

In the cold wave, heavy snow continues around the west coast of Honam and Jeju Island.

With strong snow concentrated on the west coast of Honam until tonight, a "heavy snow warning" is also in place in the region.

By tomorrow, there will be more than 30cm of snow in the mountains of Jeju and more than 20cm in the western part of Jeollabuk-do.

Up to 15cm more will fall on the west coast of Chungcheongnam-do and Jeollanam-do.

The bitter cold will gradually ease from the holiday, and for the time being, snow rain is expected to fall frequently on the west coast of Honam and Jeju Island.

The East Coast area is still under a dry weather warning.

The risk of fire is also high due to strong winds across the country. We need to be careful not to have wildfires.
