Korea Forest Service Lowers Nationwide Landslide Warning to 'Attention'
[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] The Korea Forest Service has downgraded the nationwide landslide risk alert level to ‘Interest’.
The Korea Forest Service Landslide Prevention Support Headquarters announced on the 16th at 9 a.m. that the landslide risk alert for 17 cities and provinces nationwide has been downgraded to ‘Interest’.
The downgrade of the landslide risk alert is a measure taken because the heavy rain warnings and landslide forecasts issued nationwide have all been lifted, the 53-day-long rainy season has ended, expected rainfall has decreased, and the risk of landslides has been reduced.
The landslide risk alert is divided into four levels: Interest, Caution, Warning, and Severe.
