Such a difference between Nagaoka and Tokyo on the same day.

I am Yoshida, president of Yamada Shusei Ltd., a professional apparel garment repair group in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture.

Exactly one year ago, on December 18, Nagaoka was hit by a heavy snowfall, and this year at the same time a cold wave, said to be once in 10 years, is coming.

In the midst of all the warnings in the news, I was in Tokyo on a business trip on December 18.

I was again surprised at the difference between Nagaoka and Tokyo on such different same days. It is said that we need to be prepared for even heavier snow from around December 20, so I would like to spend this week in particular with caution.
