[Tomorrow's Weather] Hazy Sky Due to Fine Dust... Beware of Hwangsa

On Monday the 22nd, the whole country will be mostly cloudy with high fine dust concentrations due to yellow dust.

The yellow dust originating from the Gobi Desert and the Inner Mongolian Plateau is currently being observed in the Seoul metropolitan area and Gangwon Province. It is expected to gradually affect most regions nationwide.

Because of this, fine dust concentrations will be 'very bad' in the Honam region, 'bad' in the Seoul metropolitan area, Chungcheong region, Yeongnam region, and Jeju region, and 'normal' in other areas.

On the 21st, when yellow dust originating from the Gobi Desert and the Inner Mongolian Plateau began to be observed domestically, the fine dust concentration showed a "very bad" level, and the streets of Seoul were covered with dust in the afternoon.
