Statement as of 10:15 AM AKDT on October 25, 2011
... First measurable snowfall in Anchorage possible Wednesday
morning...
A strong low pressure system is currently located near Kodiak Island
and is moving toward the northern Gulf today. Cold air on the back
side of the low will wrap around and filter into south central Alaska
early Wednesday morning. Rain will fall overnight and begin to
transition over to snow toward morning. Temperatures are expected to
remain just above freezing so accumulation on roadways is not
expected to be significant. Precipitation will end by late morning
with total snowfall accumulation in town expected to be less than 1
inch. Higher elevations could see slightly more accumulation as
temperatures drop below freezing earlier in the morning... so
anticipating 1 to 3 inches possible at higher elevations.

I guess summer's over...I was wondering what happened to the trees.
Q
The leaves have been bare here for most of October. Your forecast & ours are different mostly because we're at sea level in a coastal city. Denver's inland, and just a bit higher. :)
Uh, 73 F here today and a low of 43. Leaves turning color but mostly still hanging on.
I DON'T miss Alaska... :-) One winter in Adak was enough for me...
See, there's the difference: I spent two years on Adak, and didn't want to leave. A friend & I are actually talking about going there next year, just because.
LOL- All I can say is 'enjoy'... Flying out of there day in and day out was NOT fun!
