Record of heavy snowfall in Korea on November 24, 2024.
"The Most Snowfall in November in Korean History.”
1. A Heavy Snowfall in November Like Never Before.
I've never seen this much snow in November while living in Korea. I thought there might be some foreign people interested in this, so I decided to post it in English.
2. Photos of the record-breaking snowfall in November taken in Seongnam, near Seoul.
This photo was taken near Bundang Catholic Church. At that time, I thought the snow had stopped.
The sidewalk was slippery.
In Korea, the snow that accumulates on trees is called 'snow flowers=눈꽃.' The snow flowers bloomed beautifully.
Just as I was finishing my outing and heading home, it started to snow even more.
The snowfall of this intensity continued for about an hour. You can gauge the amount of snow by the height accumulated on the road signs.
Snowplows are busy moving around, but they are struggling to keep up with the snowfall.
Snow accumulated on a pine tree.
It snowed a lot.
The crosswalk is completely invisible, and the lane markings are the same.
Snow accumulated in the playground.
Snow accumulated on the fire hydrant.
Snow flowers. (=눈꽃)
Snow accumulated on the shared bicycle ‘GCOO’. Will it be able to operate
Snow falling heavily enough to make walking difficult.
This is a sight that is rarely seen in November in Korea.
This is the view of the apartment complex after the snowfall has somewhat subsided.
3. To conclude.
Korea experiences very hot summers and very cold winters. So while snowfall isn't unusual, having this much snow in November is quite special. I’m not sure if we will see this again in 2025, but since it often snows a lot in December and January, it might be helpful for those planning a trip to Korea.
I wonder who will read this, but I hope it helps anyone who is interested.
