The San Bernardino County Sheriff now says 13 bodies have been found in the mountains, but says so far only one has been linked to snowstorms.
Mountains continue to struggle in the aftermath of a series of storms that dumped so much snow that roads became impassable and roofs collapsed. Now residents are preparing for the next round of storms.
"The preliminary information we have at this time, is the circumstances observed at the scenes did not present as weather related. Many of the deceased had significant medical histories or chronic conditions. Seven of these decedents were transported to the Coroner’s Division for additional investigation," the sheriff's department said. Sheriff Shannon Dicus says he knows people are frustrated and addressed what he calls "a lot of circulating misinformation.
