National Guard digging out Californians from feet of snow

The California National Guard has been going door to door in San Bernardino County helping to dig out residents that have been trapped inside their homes after several feet of snow buried the area. There was a brief break in the wintry weather to close out the workweek in California, but another round of heavy snow arrived over the weekend.

Several more feet of snow could fall across the Sierra Nevada and Siskiyous mountain ranges through Tuesday.
