As the cold air from the north moves south, a cold wave warning is issued across the country, and cold weather continues today.



The morning temperature in Seoul will drop to -9 degrees Celsius, and in Cheorwon and Daegwallyeong, it will drop to around -14 degrees Celsius.



Here, as the wind blows, the perceived temperature is expected to drop to around 15 degrees below zero, centering on the central inland.



There will be places where it rains or snows around 5mm in the western region, including Jeju Island and the west coast of Chungnam.



It will snow 1 to 5 cm in the mountains of Jeju Island, and 1 to 3 cm in Chungnam and Jeollaseo Coast.



This cold continues until tomorrow morning and is expected to ease somewhat from noon tomorrow, but the normal winter cold is expected to continue.
