Today, the weekend, the air quality is expected to rise to the level of’very bad’ nationwide due to the influence of yellow dust.

Amidst the crisis warning’interest’ stage in the country. Fine dust warnings are being issued everywhere.

Let’s find out the detailed weather. Choi Hyun-mi, caster!

The dust situation is getting worse?

[캐스터]

That’s right. Now in the afternoon, the whole country is covered with yellow dust, and the concentration of dust is getting thicker.

The cloudy sky behind me now adds yellow sand, and the downtown of Seoul seen from Namsan is only cloudy.

Currently, the concentration of fine dust in Seoul is 142 micrograms, showing a’bad’ level, and the dust level is rising faster than the previous hour.

Please refrain from going out as much as possible and wear a KF80 or higher health mask if you inevitably go out.

Currently,’Fine Dust Advisory’ is issued in eastern regions such as Gangwon and Gyeongbuk, and the concentration of fine dust has increased by 2-3 times compared to usual.

Today, the concentration of fine dust nationwide will rise or fall from’bad’ to’very bad’.

For this reason, since yesterday, 17 provinces across the country have been issued a yellow dust crisis warning’interest’ stage.

Here, mainly in the central region, there will be a shower in the afternoon due to atmospheric instability.

In the central part, northeastern Jeollabuk-do, and northern Gyeongbuk, the amount of dust is small, so it is not possible to wash off the dust.

Even in the cloudy sky, the daytime temperature will not rise significantly.

The daytime temperature in Seoul will stay at 15 degrees Celsius, while Daejeon and Gwangju will stay at 16 degrees Celsius.

On the holiday tomorrow, the air quality will be restored again and the clear blue sky will be revealed.

Sunny weather will continue without rain news for the time being, but the daytime temperature is expected to exceed 20 degrees Celsius, resulting in high temperatures.

In particular, in the Yeongdong area of ​​Gangwon, where dry warnings continue, the risk of large-scale forest fires is expected to increase as high temperatures and strong winds continue.

Please take care to manage the embers to prevent a fire accident.
