This puts snowmageddon to shame. We didn’t even get a meter in 24 hours. They got 120 cm in just 12! That’s roughly 10 cm per hour!

For non-metric speakers, they got 47” of snow in 12 hours, which is about 4” per hour.

This is INSANE! ❄️☃️❄️
The Tokachi region in Japan experienced record-breaking snowfall, with Obihiro City buried under 1.2 meters (120 cm / 47 inches) of snow in just 12 hours as of the morning of February 4th. This marks the highest snowfall recorded in the country since records began and is three times the city's average February snowfall.
