At nearly half a mile above sea level, Pyeongchang is regarded as one of the coldest regions of South Korea, and is Earth's coldest location for its latitude.
平昌海拔约0.5英里(约合0.8千米),是韩国最寒冷的地区之一,也是地球同纬度最冷的地区。
It's the windchill factor.
这是因为风寒因素。
At the opening ceremony rehearsal on Saturday, biting winds dropped the temperature to -23C. The agency said spectators should "brace themselves" and Olympics officials have warned everyone attending to "wrap up and prepare properly".
在上周六的开幕式彩排上,刺骨的寒风使温度下降到零下23度。气象局表示,观众要“做好准备”,奥委会官员也提醒参加的所有人“穿得暖暖和和的,做好适当的防寒。”
面对气温的骤降,国际奥委会主席巴赫在4日当天的发布会上,还和到场媒体记者开起了玩笑。
太冷却不下雪?只好用假雪
Because of the freezing temperatures, Pyeongchang is susceptible to variable levels of snowfall. Major snowstorms are a rarity in the area, and in February 2017 it snowed on just seven days with an average snowfall of 6.3cm.
由于气温达到冰点,平昌易受各种程度降雪的影响,但却很少下大雪。2017年2月,平昌就下了7天雪,平均降雪量6.3厘米。
It's a concern shared by Games organisers who, as a result, have brought in snow cannons to produce it artificially at a cost of £4.4m.
