South Korea is expected to get hit with heavy snowfall from Tuesday afternoon.

The Korea Meteorological Administration said a heavy snow advisory is expected to be issued for the Chungcheong and Jeolla provinces as well as the mountainous regions in Gangwon Province. It said those areas could see up to 15 centimeters of snow Tuesday afternoon.

The weather agency projected that the central region and northwestern inland areas of the Gyeongsang provinces are expected to see three to eight centimeters of snow fall.

After the snow lets up, a cold snap with strong, cold winds is forecast to cut through the nation.

Seoul is expected to see morning lows reach minus 13 degrees Celsius on Wednesday.
