Good morning, the capital area received some unexpected snow on Tuesday... Seoul saw 3.5 centimeters over the day. Drive with caution... we are waking up to much milder temperatures than Tuesday but it's still way below the freezing mark, but at least dry weather alerts have lifted while the rest will continue to have dry conditions.

On that note, here are the readings for today. Seoul and Daejeon are waking up to a low of minus 6 degrees Celsius again, those of us in Seoul will need to take care on the slippery roads and give yourself extra time.

As for the highs, Seoul will rise to 1 degree Celsius, Daegu and Gwangju will have a high of 5 degrees under sunny skies in Daegu while Gwangju will be covered with clouds.

The cold snap will return this Saturday, while this Sunday is Ipchun, a seasonal term that marks the beginning of spring so we would expect conditions to warm up accordingly, but not for a while...

That's Korea for you and here's the international weather for viewers around the world.
