Weather Flashcards
What’s the weather like where you live?
Daegu’s weather is known to be the hottest city so there is a nickname called Daefrica and this combined Africa with the name. I easily get hot so I don’t really like the weather in my city. In the summer, I try my best to stay indoors.
Do you prefer cold or hot weather?
Compared to hot weather, I prefer cold weather because I don’t sweat when it’s cold. I easily get hot so I just don’t like hot weather. So, my favorite season is autumn.
Do you prefer dry or wet weather?
I slightly prefer dry weather more because my body feels lighter and when the weather is wet, I feel under the weather (상태가 안 좋다 - 숙어). If it’s wet, the laundry doesn’t even dry well so it doesn’t feel good.
Are you in the habit of checking the weather forecast? When/How often?
Yes, I check the weather forecast the day before, right before I sleep. If there is an important day, I always check before but when I go to work, I don’t check. But if there is a business trip or a trip scheduled, I must check.
What do you think are the effects of climate change in recent years?
Due to climate change, in Korea, the weather became hotter and there were more frequent typhoons/storms and the rainy season has been extended in the summer. Spring and autumn are much shorter than the past.
Would you like to visit other cities that have different climates from where you live?
I would like to go to places in the Southern Hemisphere such as Australia because they have a different weather system than Korea. I think it would be interesting to experience. If there is a chance, I would love to go there.
