Snow actually accumulated in Tokyo — apparently an unusual amount even by recent standards.
When I lived in Nagoya, we had up to 20 cm at times… but I didn’t expect to run into this in Tokyo.
After that, snow came a couple more times. And every time I went back to Nagoya, it snowed there too. Same on a business trip to Hyogo. Somehow I kept running into snow wherever I went.
