but we usually don't get so much snow this late in the year. Last Friday was the third most snowfall on a single day in Anchorage since records have been kept here, and over a foot more than the previous record for April.

I know it's not too unusual in Colorado. The year my brother was born in Colorado Springs (1957) we had a foot or so of snow the end of May. And one other year when I lived down there, '61 or '62, I believe, there was a ton of snow on September 1, a couple of feet, if I remember right. (Actually, we lived in Woodland Park then, so there might not have been as much down in town.) Colorado's one place where you can be picnicking one day and shoveling out the next.
