Fairbanks Borough schools closed Monday as region digs out from storm

Fairbanks North Star Borough Schools in Alaska will be closed on Monday due to more than a foot of snow that fell over the Easter weekend. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities has asked people to avoid traveling on the Parks Highway as plows were unable to keep up with the falling and drifting snow. Scattered power outages were reported, and more are expected as the wind picks up. The snowfall is a new two-day April record for Fairbanks, according to Weather Service measurements. After the storm moves through, temperatures in the Interior will drop sharply, with lows in the double digits below zero by midweek.
