The first snow of the season fell overnight Sunday and left a light dusting throughout the Anchorage Bowl, with accumulations of up to 2 inches on the east side of town, meteorologists said.
A weather system moved into the area from the western Gulf coast late Saturday, and a light snow began falling in the Anchorage Bowl around 1 a.m., said National Weather Service meteorologist Kaitlyn O’Brien.
By early Sunday there was a dusting of snow throughout the Anchorage Bowl, and O’Brien said by afternoon reports in West Anchorage ranged from about a half-inch to an inch of snow. In upper elevations throughout the municipality, including Anchorage Hillside and Eagle River, accumulations of 1.5 to 2 inches of snow were reported.

Today saw further showers across the northern and eastern Alps, bringing a little snow above 1500-1900m, with the best of any sunshine in the south-western Alps. Madonna di Campiglio (due to open 21 November) has had more snow than most recently, but much of its lower-lying snow will melt over the next few days – 29 October 2020 – Photo: funiviecampiglio.it
Tomorrow will see showers across the eastern Austrian Alps (e.g. Obertauern), but with a higher rain/snow limit, rising to 2500m or so. It will be mostly dry elsewhere, with plenty of sunshine in the southern and western Alps. The weather at the weekend then looks as if it will be fine and very mild across the board.

Major early-season winter storm brings heavy snow and record cold temperatures to U.S.
Widespread heavy snow falling across the central Rockies and central Plains is forecast to shift further south and develop into another major winter storm for the southern High Plains Monday into Tuesday, October 26 into 27, according to the National Weather Service (NWS). The station in Potomac, Montana, recorded -33 °C (-29 °F) on Sunday morning, October 25 — the lowest temperature at an official climate site in the U.S. this early in the season. More record cold temperatures are expected to engulf the affected regions over the next couple of days.
An area of freezing rain and sleet is forecast to develop over portions of the southern Plains to start the week.
The new, early-season major winter storm across the central Rockies to the Plains is showing no sign of abating. It comes on the heels of another early-season winter storm which hit parts of the northern U.S. last week, breaking scores of snowfall records in Montana, Iowa, and Minnesota.Storm warnings, winter storm watches, and winter weather advisories have been issued from the central and southern Rockies into the Plains, as far south as West Texas and Oklahoma.
Heavy snow started in Washington State, northern Idaho, and Montana on Friday, October 23. Up to 63 cm (25 inches) of snow already fell southwest of Helena, Montana. This was the sixth heaviest two-day snowfall on record in the area.
