I was born in Ohio and never lived in Virginia to make the comparison to there... But in my experience summers in Japan are not all that different than Ohio. Winters, on the other hand, are much milder here. In Japan (at least where I live) it`s rare for it to drop much below freezing even as the low at night. Where I grew up, it wasn`t unheard of for it to drop to below 0F (-18C).
