BeschrijvingHeavy snowfall paralyses Japan.jpg
English: In the past week, Japan suffered one of the most severe cold spells of the season due to an unusually cold weather formation, which caused heavy snowfall across large parts of the country. The intense storm heavily impacted transport networks, as vehicles and local trains were blocked by the snow with thousands of people inside and flights had to be cancelled due to the weather. The worst affected areas were located in the Southwestern area of Japan, where the city of Maniwa hit with a record 93 cm of snow in just 24 hours. This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 26 January, shows the snow-covered Nemuro peninsula, in northern Japan. Copernicus Sentinel satellites provide free and open data that is used to monitor snow cover, an important driver of many climatic, environmental and economic processes worldwide.
