From Alaska...

ABC 33/40 Skywatcher Todd Foisy contibuted this storm report from Alaska this evening on the Skywatcher IM conference:

Girdwood, Alaska: High 42.3/Low 35.4/Current 40.5/Rain 2.78"/Snow Depth 1" An exceptional storm system last night. Winds gusted to 100 mph in some areas (not here thankfully) and did some significant damage in portions of Anchorage and Eagle River, knocking some roofs off houses and downing plenty of trees. Storm total precip here was 3.21" over about 24 hours, falling first as wet snow yesterday but changing to rain. The mountains got multiple feet of snow, as did some lower elevations sites north of here.
