1. List of Heavy Snow Cases

One day I read a newspaper article with a expression like "a cyclone of typhoon strength" and this motivated me to start this page. We will collect satellite images related to very strong extratropical cyclones with the strength of a typhoon, and especially in winter when those cyclones cause heavy snow in Japan.

About the difference between an extratropical cyclone and a typhoon (tropical cyclone), please have a look at "The Typhoon Is Changed to the Extratropical Cyclone."
