A video capturing a classic snow country scene in Sapporo, Hokkaido, is gaining attention on social media. Many people seem astonished by the sight of Sapporo's cityscape being instantly enveloped in white.

The city of Sapporo vanished, engulfed by a blizzard.

This video was filmed from the JR Tower Observatory, located 160 meters high on the 38th floor, directly connected to Sapporo Station. At the beginning of the video, the city of Sapporo is clearly visible, but in the next moment, white snow sweeps in from the right, completely obscuring the view.

This sudden change has prompted a flood of amazed comments from social media users, such as, "A whiteout even inside a building," "I got to see something amazing," and "I can watch this incredible video over and over."

Although it was calm when filming began, a blizzard accompanied by strong winds suddenly started, making the entire city disappear in an instant. "I had a feeling it was coming, so I had my camera ready," they said, resulting in this precious footage that documents a sudden change in weather.
