In an average November in Anchorage, Alaska, residents can expect to see a little over 12 inches of snow over the course of the month.
Last week, in the span of two days, more than twice the much fell, with Wednesday shattering a single-day record with nine inches of snow in 24 hours. Some parts of the city saw 30 inches of snow total, resulting in road closures, power outages and school closings.
