Spring and winter, come and go: first snow in Kyushu, spring first in Tokai.

Such a headline is in the newspaper. Heavy snow information has been flowing recently, and especially in the Kyushu region, it says that everywhere is record breaking first snow. On the other hand, a cherry blossom festival is held in Kawazu-cho, Shizuoka Pre., and it is full of people who appreciate the cherry blossoms in full bloom.

このところ連日大雪情報か流れています。九州でも桜島に初雪が降ったとか、あちらこちらに初雪が降ったそうですが、どれも観測史上記録破りの遅い初雪だそうです。一方、静岡県の河津町では桜祭りが開催中で、桜は満開も満開といった状況だそうです。
