People Sometimes Ask...

if we ever get snow in Tokyo.
The last time we had accumulation was four years ago. Several centimeters, and it lingered for a couple of weeks. Everyone just pulls out their tire chains and continues on their way.
 Next morning, we had accumulation, but on a sunny day, it won't last long.
The transit system barely copes with the volume of passengers in the morning, and adding something like snowfall creates chaos. Huge delays result.
