...into the hot tub. "I don't ever remember snow," said Debbie, 12. "It was fun." Not for everybody. More than 10,000 customers lost electrical power, and drifts forced the closing of parts of Interstate 5, California's main north-south artery, causing monumental traffic jams. The unusual weather left thousands of vacationers moping in Palm Springs and did frost damage to citrus groves and flowers scheduled to be picked for Valentine's Day.

Gone were the threats of a trade war. Absent too was much of the anger that provided a harsh overtone for recent U.S.-Japanese summits. In their place was the hope, albeit still as fragile as a cherry blossom, for an era of growing harmony between the two countries that together...
