-It will snow or rain in most parts of the country from the evening of the 3rd to the dawn of the next day, which is the beginning of spring. Especially in the metropolitan area, it is expected that a heavy snow warning will be issued with a maximum of 15cm of snow.
On the 2nd, the Meteorological Administration predicted, “It is expected that it will snow or rain in most parts of the country between the evening of the 3rd and the dawn of the 4th, especially in the central region (excluding the east coast of Gangwon).”
In the southern regions, it is expected that it will snow or rain between the 3rd late night and the 4th early morning.
According to the Meteorological Administration, the central region, northern Gyeongsang Province, where the temperature is low, and the southern mountainous regions with high altitude will fall with snow, but warm air in the other southern regions will cause rain or snow to rise as the temperature near the ground rises. As the snow cloud belt develops strongly from the north and moves, a lot of snow accumulates in the metropolitan area, Gangwon-do (excluding the east coast), the North Chungcheong Province, and the North Gyeongsangbuk-do, and there is a possibility that a heavy snow warning will be released. In the center of Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do (excluding Gangwon-dong coast), a maximum of 15cm of snow will accumulate.
In particular, the intensity of the snow will be stronger as cold air is strongly introduced late at night, and it is highly likely that snow cover will increase sharply in the central region for 1 to 2 hours due to this effect.
Estimated snowfall is between 6 pm on the 3rd and 3 am on the 4th in East Gyeonggi, Gangwon-do (excluding the Gangwon-dong coast), 5-15 cm, Seoul, West Gyeonggi, North Chungcheong, and North Gyeongsang Province, 3-10 cm in the eastern mountains, Chungnam area, North Chungcheong, It is 1~5cm in the Jeonbuk area, the northeastern northeastern inland, the inland of the Gyeongbuk area, the inland of the western Gyeongsang Province, the mountains of Jeju Island, the west sea 5do, Ulleungdo and Dokdo.
An official from the Meteorological Agency said, “Since the intensity of the snow increases from the night of the 3rd, it is better to hurry home from work in the central region where snow is expected at this time.” “From the early morning of the 4th to the morning, the snow accumulated by the cold air does not melt or the rain freezes. It is highly likely that it will be stuck on an ice road, so it is necessary to pay special attention to traffic safety on the way to work nationwide.”
However, the Meteorological Administration said that if the daytime temperature rises slightly before the influx of precipitation clouds, sleet may begin first in the central regions where the altitude is low, such as the west coast of Gyeonggi and Seoul, leading to less snowfall.
