TOKYO — Tokyo residents woke up Thursday to the first November snowfall in more than 50 years.
An unusually cold air mass brought wet snow to Japan’s capital. Above-freezing temperatures kept the snow from sticking in most places, though it did accumulate on sidewalks and cars in Tokyo’s far western suburbs.
Meteorologists forecast up to 1 inch would fall, and more in the mountains northwest of Tokyo.
The last time it snowed in central Tokyo in November was 1962.
