«Breaking News» From the mountains of Japan to New York state: The snowiest cities in the world revealed

Is there such a thing as too much snow?

Keen skiers and snowboarders - and manufacturers of winter equipment - might not think so, but some of the residents of the cities in this ranking may, conceivably, beg to differ. 

Here we reveal the snowiest major cities across the world, ranked in reverse order of snowy-ness, according to AccuWeather. It's just the cold hard facts... 

10. Buffalo, U.S

Situated at the head of the Niagara River, Buffalo (pictured) in upstate New York gets an average of just under eight feet of snow each year

Situated at the head of the Niagara River, Buffalo, in upstate New York, rounds off the list in 10th place with an average of just under eight feet of snow each year.

Most of the snow falls between December and March. 

The only exception to this was in 2015, when strong El Nino winds meant no measurable snow fall.

9. Rochester, U.S.

Pedestrians make their way down Main Street in Rochester, New York

Located in upstate New York, Rochester makes the list in ninth place with an average annual snowfall of just over eight feet.

Temperatures during the colder months often drop to zero degrees Fahrenheit (-17C).

However, in the summer, temperatures can climb up to around 29 degrees Celsius. 

8. Akita, Japan

Akita on the north west coast of Japan's Honshu island is the eighth snowiest city with an average annual snowfall of just under nine feet.

The city is home to several ski and snowboarding resorts thanks to its mountainous location.

Akita overlooks Lake Tazawa - the deepest crater lake in Japan.

7. Saguenay, Canada

Snow is piled up at the side of the road to allow cars to pass in Saguenay, Canada. The cold winter temperatures in the city are partly caused by the cold waters of the Labrador Current coming from the North Atlantic

In seventh place is Saguenay in Quebec, Canada, which sees an average snowfall of 10.25 feet each year.

The cold winter temperatures in the city are partly caused by the cold waters of the Labrador Current coming from the North Atlantic.

Saguenay is well known for offering winter pursuits such as snowmobiling, ice fishing and snow-shoeing.

5 (tied). Syracuse, U.S

The city of Syracuse, pictured, in New York state holds the title for the snowiest in the US, and the joint fifth snowiest in the world

The city of Syracuse in New York state holds the title for the snowiest in the US, and the joint fifth snowiest in the world.

Syracuse usually sees an average of 10.3 feet of snow each winter as it is close to Lake Ontario and is often hit with nor’easter cyclones.

The city is home to one of America's most prestigious universities but despite the harsh winters, students rarely get a snow day.

5 (tied). Quebec City, Canada

Quebec City, the capital of the Canadian province of Quebec, shares fifth place in the list. Pictured is the snow lying across the beautiful Chateau Frontenac 

The capital of the Canadian province of Quebec shares fifth place in the list of the snowiest cities in the world with an average of 10.3 feet of snow each year.

Snow usually falls in Quebec City between December and April.

To celebrate the heavy snow, each year a winter carnival is held in February that includes snow displays and flashing lights.

4. St. John's, Canada

The war memorial in St John's, Newfoundland, in Canada, covered in snow. As usual. St John's is known for its extreme weather and also holds the title for the foggiest, windiest and cloudiest Canadian city

St John's on Newfoundland island in Canada experiences an average of just under 11 feet of snow each year.

The area is known for its extreme weather - St John's also holds the title for the foggiest, windiest and cloudiest Canadian city.

The coldest month here is February, where average temperatures can dip as low as -8.6C.

3. Toyama, Japan

Toyama gets an average of just under 12 feet of snow each year. Pictured are tourists walking through snow walls there, which can reach 17 metres (55ft)

The third snowiest city in the world and Japan is Toyama, located on the country's west coast, which receives an average of just under 12 feet of snow each year.

In the summer, Toyama has a humid subtropical climate but between December and March, the mercury plummets and this is when most of the snow falls.

It is thought the city's coastal location and position just below Japan's snow belt causes heavy winter snowfall.

2. Sapporo, Japan 

Young children enjoy playing in the snow in a park in Sapporo, Japan - the second snowiest city in the world. It receives and average of 16 feet of snow per year 

Sapporo, on the island of Hokkaido, is the second snowiest place in the world with an annual average of 16 feet of snow.

The airport there is used by skiers and snowboarders heading to the world-famous Niseko ski resort, which is known for its huge quantities of powder, often thigh-deep even on the runs. 

The Sapporo locals use the snow to their advantage by staging the annual Sapporo Snow Festival, where people flock to see ice sculptures and snow statues. The city staged the Winter Olympics in 1972.

1. Aomori City, Japan

A pair of tourists wade through heavy snow on Mt Hakkoda, which is 18 miles to the south of Aomori City. The trees, when they are covered in the white stuff like this, are known locally as 'snow monsters'

Situated on the northern coast of Japan's Honshu island, Aomori City takes the title for being the snowiest city in the world - with an average annual snowfall of 26 feet.

Most of the white stuff falls between November and April and the snow-ploughed roads in the surrounding countryside during these months become dramatic 'snow corridors'.

Meteorologists say that Aomori's heavy snowfall is the result of colliding winds and rapidly rising and cooling air, which accelerates cloud formation, and cold weather systems from north-east Asia. Its record low temperature is -24.7C in 1931.     

• The data comes from 2016 and Accuweather said that it will update the list in 2020. The top 10 ranking was drawn up based on populations totaling more than 100,000 people.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
