Photos show record-breaking South Korea snowfall
Briefly

"Seoul on Thursday saw its heaviest November daily snow since the Korea Meteorological Administration began keeping records in 1907, and the third-heaviest for any month, at 28.6 cm, or 11.26 inches."
"A warming Yellow Sea, which was 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit (2 degrees Celsius) above average, played a role in the unusually heavy snowstorm, local media outlets reported."
"A frigid lobe of the polar vortex, which typically sits closer to the North Pole, meandered southward into the region...leading to large amounts of snow and sleet."
"Black ice from melted snow caused a massive 53-car pileup in Gangwon province, and a traffic guard in the city of Hwaseong was killed by a bus that lost traction."
