Seoul Paralyzed by Record Snowfall, Flights and Travel Disrupted

Heavy snowfall in Seoul, the third-heaviest since 1907, has led to the cancellation of over 140 flights and suspension of ferry operations, with at least four fatalities reported. The snow accumulation reached over 40cm, causing significant disruptions, including a 53-vehicle pile-up in Wonju. The unusually heavy snow is attributed to warmer seawater temperatures meeting cold air currents. Authorities have lifted heavy snow warnings, but delays and cancellations continue to affect transportation.
