I went to Inawashiro in Fukushima prefecture on business last week. When I landed in Fukushima airport, there was no snow around airport, however there was a lot of snow in Inawashiro area.
(Inawashiro area is located around mountains)
My rent a car was just front wheel drive(2WD)…… It was really slide easily on the snow road in Inawashiro. I had to pay attention safely, slowly driving.
By the way, I visited the trout hatchery, and I had a couple of meetings in there. After meetings, I looked around cheking eggs. They remove the white color eggs from fertilized eggs. It was really interesting.
