Winter 2011 / 2012 Update

[Source: National Weather Service]
According to
the weather service, the last snowstorm this week brought about 6 inches of snow to Anchorage, moving the winter of 2011-12 up to 4th snowiest ever with 119.9 inches -- people, that's nearly 10 feet of snow!

With only 19.6 inches to go before tying the record level set in 1954-55, it is interesting to note that two of the top five snowiest days in Anchorage weather history occurred during the month of March (22.0 inches on March 17, 2002, and 14.3 inches on March 18, 1976).
