As the blade loosens a bit, fine dust is always rotting inside. In the metropolitan area, the fine dust situation is so bad that emergency measures to reduce fine dust were taken for the first time this winter. Let's find out more about it by connecting to the Meteorological Center.
Sujin Ahn Caster, please tell me.

As the wind from the west brought in high-concentration fine dust, the emergency light was turned on today (16th) as well for the ultra-fine dust.
Currently, fine dust from the previous day remains in the west and Gyeongbuk areas. Currently, the concentration of ultrafine dust in Seoul is 63㎍, which is three times higher than usual.
In the metropolitan area, emergency measures to reduce fine dust were issued for the first time this winter. It should be noted that the operation of Grade 5 vehicles is restricted and the operating hours of construction sites and business sites may be shortened.
As the atmosphere is stagnant, dust will accumulate all day today. The dust will gradually dissipate as cold air comes down tomorrow morning.
In the morning, dust and fog get entangled, making it even more difficult to see.
You must leave a sufficient distance between vehicles and drive slowly.
Rain clouds are approaching in the southern regions. Rain clouds have already covered Jeju and Jeollanam-do, and they will gradually expand to the southern regions and most of them will stop in the afternoon.
Today, the temperature will be well above the normal level, and there will be no major cold.
A strong cold will come again tomorrow. In addition, there is a possibility of heavy snow of up to 15 cm in the Honam region.
