South Korea to see "bad" to "very bad" fine dust levels throughout day

  • 5 years ago
Let's start with the polluted air we are currently being subjected to in South Korea.
High concentrations of ultra fine dust are hanging over much of the country this morning.
On the classification scale we have in South Korea,... levels range from "bad" to "very bad."
The Korea Meteorological Administration says the fine dust levels are due to a high pressure system over China's central region.
Experts add that while temperatures are set to be milder this week,... fine dust will be a problem throughout the week.
The combination of colder than average temperatures and fine dust has led to a number of cold stress and respiratory issues this winter.
If you are watching us in Korea,... you are advised to wear a face mask if you head outside.
