it the ... "hottest" topic of the day. Let's go straight to our weather center for

some updates with our Lee Jee-hyun? Jee-hyun?

Hello, Daniel What a day All day long, the negative readings, wind chill factor, and

snowy conditions had us shivering Here in Seoul, it felt as minus 20 degrees Celsius

all day long

Minus 20 degrees Celsius ... So it comes as no surprise that rivers froze across the nation

That's right The background picture behind me was taken from the Namhangang river today,

and the Namhangang as well as other main rivers should remain frozen for the time being...

...as the cold blast will continue tomorrow with cold wave alerts remaining in place in

most regions, including the capital area. So for tomorrow's temperatures, expect similar

conditions, as

Seoul will start out at a low of minus 14 degrees Celsius... while Daejeon's low will

hit minus 11, Gwangju and Busan kick off at minus 6 and minus 7.

Highs will slightly go higher... Seoul will make it to minus 5 by afternoon,

while Daejeon and Daegu rise to minus 1 and zero, and Busan and Jeju Island will see highs

of 3 and 4.

While the upper regions had a dry and sunny day, the Jeollado provinces and surrounding

areas saw heavy snow including Gwangju, where snow accumulated to 11 centimeters. Hundreds

of incidents were reported on the roads in those areas today... but more snow is still

expected with up to 5 centimeters to fall over night.

The current cold snap will persist through the weekend and into early next week. So stay

warm and try to avoid outside for too long if possible

That's Korea for you and here's a look at weather conditions around the world.
