3 new records were set in Anchorage in the last 18 hours! With temperatures in the single digits overnight and just 20° this afternoon, this is the coldest weather we've ever experienced in Anchorage on April 8th and 9th. Another record will go down Saturday if we drop below 7° overnight.
This storm also brought in wind gusts to 170 mph (at 5,000'), more than 90 mph near Valdez, and over 60 mph in Seward. The cold sticks with us one more day with light snow possible Saturday, then it's back to the 40s next week with chances for a wintry mix.
