Dust to get cleared with cold northerly winds _ 012319
  • 5 years ago
Good morning, it's another dusty day... you will need a face mask on your way out. Most of the Korean peninsula has been covered with toxic smog since last night... It's forecast to stay dusty until cold northerly winds blow in later in the afternoon.

Until then, levels will be 2 to 5 times higher than normal with ultra fine dust advisories in place for parts of the Chungcheong-do and Jeolla-do Provinces.

Temperatures will stay on the mild side, but cold winds in the afternoon will make it feel colder than the actual temperature and it will get colder for the remainder of the week.

Plenty of sunshine is in store but the dust could dim the sunshine. No rain or snow is in the forecast, and it could be one of the driest winters on record. Daily highs will range between 7 and 12 degrees Celsius.

That's Korea for you and here's the international weather for viewers around the world.
