In the north, snow continued to fall at night, accumulating layers of ice on the coastal and mountain roads due to the frost and cold, affecting the activity in the early morning even in coastal areas.

Some schools delayed classes for an hour due to the snow.

It is reported that bulldozers in mountainous areas are working to open roads and shovel ice and snow.
