Two days of snowfall disrupted transportation and caused power outages in the metropolitan Tokyo area, the second straight weekend of weather-related air, rail and road delays in the city.
Snow caused delays and some suspensions on Japan’s network of high-speed rail lines and on commuter trains in Tokyo, while roads in the capital were covered in slush after temperatures rose this morning and turned precipitation into rain.
