February 29, 2012, Tokorozawa, Japan - A group of school children treads their way in the snow in Tokorozawa, Tokyos western suburb, on Wednesday, February 29, 2012. A freak early spring storm triggered by low pressure in the Pacific Ocean south of Japan brought fresh snow over wide swaths in the Kanto Area from the wee hour of Wednesday, disrupting land-sea-air transportation services.
