Officials have called only one death as 'weather-related' in more than a dozen died in the wake of back-to-back snowstorms that stranded residents in their homes for weeks.
Why is it taking so long to help stranded residents in the San Bernardino Mountains?
On March 3 — about a week after the snowstorms began — deputies found two men dead during separate welfare checks. The other man was found in Big Bear Lake on Barker Boulevard, and while his medical history was unknown, officials said the 62-year-old had recently made “complaints of feeling sick and taking over-the-counter medication.”As a new storm rolls in, San Bernardino Mountain residents hustle to clear snow from their property and roads while the skies are still clear.
Rhea-Frances Tetley, who lived across from Avenatti, said their street was without power for six days, during which Avenatti hadn’t been able to leave her house because of the snow. Although neighbors delivered food and checked in on her, Tetley worries the extreme conditions took a toll on the otherwise lively woman.
