The weather service warned Saturday of intermittent white-out conditions on the Glenn Highway.

Snow levels at the weather service’s office, just south of the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, broke the 1958 record of 8.3 inches by a tenth of an inch.

Downtown Anchorage had 7 inches, Mountain View measured 7.8 inches and Hillside had 10 inches of snow near Upper DeArmoun.

Eagle River was hit hardest, with 12.2 inches of snow on Upper Hiland Road.
