Hokkaido, Japan Hit by Severe Snowstorm! 106 km/h Winds and Blizzards in Sapporo

On January 13, 2026, Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido was hit by a severe winter crisis driven by a powerful system rapidly deepening over the Sea of Japan, identified as the “Okhotsk Low Pressure System,” bringing heavy snowfall, strong winds, and near-zero visibility. Rapid snow accumulation within hours across many areas, especially in Sapporo, led to highway closures and widespread cancellations of train and flight services, while hundreds of passengers were stranded at New Chitose Airport. Along the coast, intensifying winds further worsened blizzard conditions, and power outages affected tens of thousands of households.
