Heavy snow in southern provinces _ 013119
Good morning. The last day of January is wrapping up on a snowy note in most of the southern provinces, mixed with rain. There's a heavy snow advisory in place for Daegu, and parts of Gyeongsang-do and Jeolla-do Provinces.
More snowfall of 1 to 8 centimeters is in store in the evening hours, so drive with extra care and please don't hurry.
Temperature-wise, readings weren't too bad this morning, but we will notice a big drop in the mercury along with biting winds. Dress warmly but strong winds will blow away the dust in the air. A freezing morning on tap for Friday.
This afternoon could even feel chillier than this morning with highs in the low single digits in most areas.
Next Monday, though, is Ipchun, marking the beginning of spring according to the traditional Korean calendar. Also, one of the biggest holidays in South Korea, the Lunar New Year is right upon us, and the weather should be generous over the holiday.
That's Korea for you and here's the international weather for viewers around the world.
