Poor air quality expected this weekend _ 110918
날씨: 주말 내내 공기질 나쁨
Now we turn to Michelle Park at the weather center for the latest updates. Michelle, seems like yesterday's rain did little to clear the air of fine dust.
That's right Daniel, the westerly winds have been pushing clouds of pollutants from China over the peninsula, pulling up the dust levels. Through the night, it's expected to worsen,... and by tomorrow practically the whole country will be under air pollution alerts.
But apart from the dust conditions, we will enjoy mild temperatures and sunny skies over the weekend.
Meanwhile, Beijing can expect a chilly Saturday afternoon, while Tokyo is forecast warmer weather.
Higher than seasonal average readings are in for Saturday. Seoul starts off the day at 8 degrees Celsius, Busan and Jeju will wake up to milder readings.
The daytime highs will reach
16 degrees in Seoul, 19 in Daegu and Gyeongju,... and 20 over in Busan.
Starting Sunday though, morning lows will plunge below the norms.
Next week will be mostly cloudless until next Thursday,... which is the day of this year's college entrance exam.
I'll leave you with the weather conditions around the world.
