Summary

More than four days into one of the worst holiday storms on record and it is not over yet. It is hard to imagine, but some parts of Western New York could see another foot or more of snow, on top of the nearly four feet they already have. Buffalo's airport is still closed and the entire eastern part of the country is still in a deep freeze. Almost 4,000 flights canceled today and thousands more tomorrow. Nationwide, at least 49 people have lost their lives in this massive storm, with 27 in the Buffalo area alone. Nate Martin, commissioner of public works for the city of Buffalo talks about the issues facing the city.  Andrea and Alex Campagna welcomed a group of South Korean tourists in from the cold, after the van they were in got stranded outside their Buffalo-area home. They also provided the kind of warmth that none of their visitors could have imagined when they knocked on their door.
