Due to the influence of the snow clouds, the western coast of Honam area received snow every day.
Snow is expected to fall again in the afternoon.
As the wind blew, the wind chill dropped sharply.
I'm connecting you with a field reporter. Reporter Oh Sun Yeol!
Is it still snowing in the west coast area?
[Reporter]
As the heavy snow warning was lifted and fermented repeatedly, a lot of snow fell in Jeollanam-do.
Strong snow was concentrated around the west coast of Honam.
Now, it's been falling and stopping in light snow.
Currently, the heavy snow warning is maintained only in Sinan, Jeollanam-do.
However, it has turned into an icy road in the snow every day, and there are many places where their feet are submerged.
In Gwangju and Jeollanam-do, about 30 cases of snow damage were reported, including large and small traffic accidents and falls.
Cold wave warnings have been issued in most parts of the country, and fierce autumn is also gaining momentum.
There is also a strong wind in the West Coast area.
The instantaneous wind speed is predicted to blow more than 20m per second in the west coast and 15m in the interior, making the temperature feel lower.
The lowest temperature was minus 19 degrees Celsius in Gurye, Jeollanam-do, minus 15.8 degrees Celsius in Hampyeong, and 14.8 degrees Celsius in Naju.As the wave height of
was very high, up to 5m, 60 ferries to and from the island of Jeollanam-do were also closed.
As the temperature drops significantly, people and vehicles are moving with reduced speed.
Each local government has started to prevent road freezing by spraying snow removal agents and spraying salt water around the frequent freezing roads.
Up to 8cm more snow is expected on the west coast of Honam until today.
As the coldest weather overlaps this winter, special attention needs to be paid to low-temperature damage to crops and safety accidents.
So far, I'm Oh Sun-yeol of YTN in Yeonggwang, Jeollanam-do.
