진로 바뀐 태풍 '솔릭', 서울과 수도권도 피해 조심
South Korea's capital city of Seoul is also waiting to see what Soulik might bring,... so far we haven't seen much in the way of rain and only slightly breezier winds than normal.
Let's speak to our Kim Mok-yeon... who's at Some Sevit, an island near Banpo Hangang Park in Seoul.
Mok-yeon,... how's it looking there?
Hi Mark, though we've been having on and off showers, the sky seems to be clearing up, and the typhoon has definitely weakened.
As so, the Korea Meteorological Administration downgraded its typhoon warnings to advisories earlier this morning.
Soulik is still on its way north, with the eye of the typhoon set to pass Gyeonggi-do province soon.
The agency initially reported that it could hit Seoul at 4 a.m., but since the course of the typhoon seems changed, the capital is not going to suffer a direct hit.
So Mok-yeon, it's raining a bit and it's fairly windy in Seoul, are the alerts and emergency countermeasures still in place?
Yes, as far as we know, they are. In fact, regional governments and related ministries have been on duty around the clock since Thursday afternoon... so around 20 hours or so.
President Moon instructed them to do all they can to ensure the safety of the people.
He's also called on private firms to adjust their working hours.
Thousands of Kindergartens, elementary and middle schools will be closed today.
Seoul's headquarters for natural disaster safety measures is still advising people to use public transportation instead of driving.
Related agencies also conducted check-ups on trains and subways to make sure they are safe in the unpredictable weather... and run on time.
Back to you, Mark .
