More snow coming so bundle up! And watch out slippery roads.

More snow is expected in Seoul and western parts of the nation this evening.

The temperatures are expected to go down further toward the weekend.

Friday would see the season’s coldest morning down at minus 14 degrees Celsius.

One weather forecaster dubbed the coming cold spell “one that would give a real sense of winter.”

The Korea Meteorological Administration posted the big snowfall advisory for Chungcheong, North Jeolla areas.

Up to 30 centimeters of snow is forecast in mountainous areas on Jeju Island and 15 centimeters expected along the western coast. Seoul could see 1 to 3 centimeters of snow.

Combined with the cold weather, the little snow could be nightmare for morning commuters.
