It is expected that the whole country will be affected by the yellow dust that occurred in China on the 16th. Fine dust in some areas, such as the metropolitan area and Sejong, will show a level of’very bad’.
The Meteorological Administration predicted that the whole country will be free from the effects of pressure valleys and will be affected by high pressure going southeast in northern China.
The concentration of fine dust is expected to be high because the nation is in the sphere of high pressure and air circulation is not smooth. The effects of yellow dust originating in China’s Inner Mongolia and the Gobi Desert are expected to continue until the 17th.
