It's been a snowy winter in Anchorage. The city has gotten roughly 71 inches of snow so far, almost double the average of about 37 inches.
A winter storm dropped more than 14 inches of snow on Anchorage over the weekend, creating hazardous road conditions and closing public schools on Monday.
National Weather Service meteorologist Matthew Fazal said the bulk of the snow, almost 9 inches, fell between Sunday and Monday morning — and that’s just the snowfall recorded at the measuring post at the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport. “If you’re going towards the Hillside, we’ve been getting reports of 16 to 18 inches of snow, and that may have been since sometime late Saturday,” Fazal said.To date this winter, Anchorage has seen roughly 71 inches of snow, almost double the average of about 37 inches. Fazal said, just this month, more than 23 inches of snow have fallen in Anchorage.Fazal said the snowfall should slow down the rest of the week.
“There doesn’t seem to be high accumulating snow, not like anything we received in the last few days,” Fazal said. “About less than half an inch. Some light snow looks to be coming into town tomorrow, and then should be done by tomorrow night.” While the Anchorage School District closed school buildings and canceled after-school activities on Monday, class was still in session. The district declared a remote learning day.
