The Meteorological Agency warned people to watch out for icy roads and possible disruption to public transport, as heavy snow has been forecast for the greater Tokyo area Friday morning.
The agency predicted Wednesday that while mountainous areas in the Kanto region would see most of the heavy snowfall, other places, including central Tokyo, could experience snow during morning commute hours.
The Meteorological Agency warned that if the amount of precipitation increases, or if it turns to rain later in the day, there is a chance of an alarming level of snowfall.
