Toxic smog returns _ 110918

Good morning, right after the heavy rain the nation had, in fact Seoul had nearly 65 millimeters in just one day, we'll be affected by toxic smog from China starting this afternoon. Polluted air is boosting fine and ultra fine dust levels to western regions and it's likely to be dusty through the weekend.

Temperatures will still be bearable hovering in the mid teens in the afternoon, it will get sunnier as the day goes on.

Checking on today's temperatures, morning lows in most parts are kicking off in the double digits... but Seoul is a bit breezier at 9 degrees but not too bad.

Highs will range between 15 to 18 degrees, Seoul and Daejeon will get up to 16 degrees, Daegu and Gwangju will be at 17. Those in western regions will need to carry a face mask.

Higher than seasonal average temperatures will persist for another week or so under mostly sunny skies.

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