This weekend’s spring storm is expected to bring 4 to 11 inches of snow to Anchorage and surrounding areas, with highest accumulations likely in East Anchorage, Eagle River and on the Hillside, according to the National Weather Service.
The low-pressure system moving from the Gulf of Alaska will also bring snow to Indian, Eklutna, Palmer, Wasilla, Sutton and Chickaloon through Sunday, with heaviest snowfall expected late Saturday night through Sunday morning, the weather service said.Most of those areas are expected to see less snow than Anchorage, between 2 and 4 inches, said Lawson.
Lawson said that this year’s above-average snowpack in Anchorage could lead to later melting periods than is typical.
