東京の大雪 Tokyo Big Snow Storm 2014 - 140208
http://youtu.be/KT0r4CTaEOs
These two videos (above and below) show the snow near the peak of the big snowfall on February 8th, 2014 - a few hours later, it stopped snowing and the next day, it had already melted down a little. As I write this (February 12th), the roads are all clear, but the ground is still generally covered with snow.

1992 Obasan-no-Harajuku Sugamo Festival おばあさんの原宿祭 920124
http://youtu.be/sLyRJ2Vg6zE
This is the area I mentioned at the top of this post - properly called "Sugamo Jizo-Dori Shotengai" (巣鴨地蔵通商店街), but popularly called Obasan-no-Harajuku (おばあさんの原宿). There is actually some pretty interesting content within this one. Something I hadn't thought about much at the time, but I realized upon watching this again while editing, is that the man standing in front of a crowd and giving a kind of presentation, is a real-life version of a scene in many of the Tora-san (Otoko-wa-Tsuri-yo) movies. After watching all the movies in that series, and then (after two decades) seeing this video of mine again, a light clicked on and I thought "Ah! There it is! That's part of what they based the Tora-san character on!"

1992 新橋の日曜日長い散歩 Weekend Shinbashi Walkabout 920126
http://youtu.be/nAU_brOp3kY
This one is seriously long (51:37), and not very exciting (it was taken on a Sunday, after all), although the part where I walk through a small time-slip zone may be of historical interest (I'm pretty certain that area has been demolished and built up since then), and the scene on a rooftop, with the sea of buildings in Shinbashi all around, is kind of interesting (in my opinion it is anyway!).
What I was doing with this one, was walking through the side streets of Shinbashi on my way from Shinbashi Station to Tokyo Tower. This video ends just as I arrive at Tokyo Tower, and for the trip up Tokyo Tower, have a look at the following video:

After visiting Tokyo Tower, I loaded a new tape in the camera and walked over to Roppongi Station:

This view of Roppongi Station is contained within the longer "Roppongi to Yutenji" video further up the page, but I thought it would be good to isolate a view of just Roppongi Station.
1992 Snow - Hibarigaoka to Koiwa 雪の日 ひばりヶ丘駅-小岩駅 920201
http://youtu.be/H8FmZGpir8w
It was interesting to me to come across views of a lot of snow on the ground on February 1st, 1992, since there's a bit of snow on the ground now as well. For places that regularly get a lot of snow, naturally there it is, year after year, but Tokyo generally gets very little, so the years where a big storm drops enough to pile up and shut down traffic for a day are notable/memorable.

Walking around near Koiwa Station - with a bit of time spend on residential side streets (getting wet and cold feet while taking video).
