January Snow Report

This winter's snowfall in Uonuma is far less than that of average years.

We normally have more than 1 meter depth of snow in January, but the depth is about 30 centimeters now!

It's good for daily life as we don't have to care about cleaning snows on the roads, which helps us to drive safely, and we don't need so much heatings.

But actually it's a little dissapointing, especially for winter sports lovers...
