Record snowfall in Alaska

By one count, more than 10 feet of snow has fallen in the last few weeks.
In this Saturday, Jan. 7, 2012 photo provided by the Alaska Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, a house is buried in snow in the fishing town of Cordova, Alaska.  Dozens of National Guard troops are helping Cordova dig out from massive snows that have collapsed roofs, trapped some people in homes and triggered avalanches.
