Is it still snowing hard?

[Reporter]
Yes, the snowstorm has weakened since 10 minutes ago in this place, where there was strong wind along with snow.

However, you can see that the telephone pole wires are spread out behind me.

Early this morning, the heavy snow, wet snow, broke the telephone pole and blocked the road to the village.

Now, telecommunications workers have come and taken the telephone poles, but residents of more than 60 households have been isolated because they have not been able to use the passage for about five hours.

Let's hear from the residents.

About 15 minutes away, the garage collapsed due to the accumulated snow in the Okcheon-myeon farmhouse.

At around 8:40 a.m., a man in his 80s working on snow removal was laid on a garage tent,
He was taken to the hospital in cardiac arrest,
, but he died.

Police are investigating the details of the accident, believing that the roof of the garage collapsed because it could not bear the weight of the snow.

From last night to 1 p.m. today, more than 200 reports of damage caused by heavy snow were received in the Gyeonggi area alone.

Strong heavy snow is expected to continue until tomorrow, so be careful of additional damage such as the collapse of facilities.
